Folks,

I built up a table of some key performance indicators for a selection of mainly Nvidia cards a while ago when the ETW demo came out. Seems to still be some queries about this sort of stuff as folks try and decide whether to upgrade their video cards - thought it might be worth posting my previously written table as a separate thread.

Code:
NVIDIA CARDS

..........PCIe Version..Pixel Rate(MP/S)..Texture Rate(MT/S)..GFlops..DirectX..Bandwidth(GB/S)..Bus Width(bits)..Core(MHz)..Shader(MHz)..Memory(MHz)
8400GS....x16.v1.0.......1800...............3600..................43.....10........6.4.............64............650..........1100........800 DDR2
8500GT....x16.v1.0.......1800...............3600..................43.....10.......12.8............128............450...........900........800 DDR2
8600GT....x16.v1.0.......4320...............8640.................113.....10.......22.4............128............540..........1180........800 DDR2 / 1400 GDDR3 (option)

9500GT....x16.v2.0.......4400...............8800.................134.4...10.......16.0............128............550..........1400........1000 DDR2 / 1600 GDDR3 (option)

Some AGP cards like my 7600GS for comparison

..........PCIe Version..Pixel Rate (MP/S)..Texture Rate (MT/S)..GFlops..DirectX..Bandwidth(GB/S)..Bus Width(bits)..Core(MHz)..Shader(MHz)..Memory(MHz)
7600GS....AGP.8x.........3200...............4800................N/A.......9........8.64.............128.............400.........N/A..........800 DDR2


ATI CARDS

..........PCIe Version..Pixel Rate (MP/S)..Texture Rate (MT/S)..GFlops..DirectX..Bandwidth (GB/S)
9000......AGP.4x...........N/A...............1000...............N/A.....8.1.......6.4
9600......AGP.8x...........N/A...............1300...............N/A.....9.0.......6.4
X800 XL...x16.v1.0.........N/A...............6400...............N/A.....9.0b.....32
HD4650....x16.v2.0........4800..............19200...............384....10.1......16


As you can see, only a few of the myriad available cards here. I'm quote open to listing other cards that folks have an interest in, just reply here and I'll post up the required cards specs if I can get hold of them.

Regards, Moopere

No problem, happy to help if I can. I suspect we'll get quite a few folks upgrading at least their video card this year. Happy to include different cards in the table above by request.
