Among the older cards, the Radeon 9800 Pro and 9600 XT both look very good. The same can’t be said for the GeForce FX series, which suffers yet another ignominious humiliation at the hands of a new release of 3DMark. Obviously, 3DMark05 is very polygon and pixel shader intensive, and the GeForce FX architecture just isn’t up to the task, despite the improvements NVIDIA has made to the runtime compiler in its graphics driver over time. Even the GeForce FX 5950 Ultra, with over 30GB/s of memory bandwidth and 3.8 gigatexels/s of fill rate, can’t match the humble Radeon 9600 XT.

29 Sep 2004 ~ 1:03pm RWB 3D Mark is so great, helps to make sure that your system is always performing at it's best. Plus you get all the visuals, I still get a kick out of watching the nature scene from 2003.

I should get about 3000+ points according to their results.
