ATI Radeon X1900XT vs nVidia Geforce 7800GTX 256Mb - Game Benchmarks

Even though the official launch of Radeon X1900 is not until next week, one of our writers in Taiwan was able to over-night a card back to our labs. There are two standalone versions of Radeon X1900; the Radeon X1900XT and the Radeon X1900XTX. The X1900XTX is essentially the same card as the X1900XT, but with slightly higher clock speeds. The cards were both benchmarked on an Opteron 165 workstation with 2GB of PC-3200. We used the latest NVIDIA driver, but the Catalyst 6.1 driver did not detect the Radeon X1900. Thus, we used a beta driver from late December. Battlefield 2, FEAR and Call of Duty 2 were tested.
