Default 285 vs 8800 ??

TX-ECODRAGON, THANKS FOR THE COMPARISONS.

Interestingly the comparison XP: 8800 vs 285 begs more questions. Take a look at the MIN FPS. These two cards have equivalent MIN FPS.

Two possible explanations:

1. At the point where maximum action is taking place it is your CPU that holds back or bottlenecks the 285.

2. Aliens ?

This means that on an LCD with 8400 CPU there is no real gain where it really counts of upgrading from 8800 to 285.

Two Question sir:
A. Are there any differences in visuals between these two cards?
B. Distant horizontal lines : do both cards shimmer/flicker the same?

Thanks
CS

I did time in DFW.....I found the peak heat of Summer rather MILD and relaxing!
