Graphics Card - Latest ranking about the overall performance of graphics cards!

nice list! someone should get a CPU/processor thread going, keep updating threads like these. years from now, we can all look back at how fast technology advances as well.

:lol: there is only one intel chip, just wait for the larrabee...

Great job on this list! ...I'm sure becauce hardware is constantly evolving that this list will always be a work in progress, I hope most that are unhappy with the rankings will understand that.....Again really nice job for all your hard work in keeping this going....:)

Cards I still currently own....

1. ATi Radeon X800 XT PE
2. Ati Radeon 9800Pro 256mb (still running in my wife's computer...loved that card ! )
3. Nvidia eVGA 7900GTX
4. Nvidia FOXCONN 8800GTX (Fac OC'ed)
5. ATi ASUS 4870 512mg (1 year old truly an awesome card)
6. ATi HIS 4890 1GB (brand new, so far really nice and running in my system).......... *+

I'll be happy to link it in the FAQ

My ATI Raedon 4800 512 MB isn't on this list :(. Anyone know where it would be if it were?

I wouldn't be surprised, as your video card does not exist. :P

Add it yourself here: http://pchardware.wikia.com/wiki/PC_Hardware_Wiki

Just remember to keep names descriptive of what the object is, it would be a pain otherwise to link stuff up and replica articles annoy me.

Awesome thread!!! but what is SLI/Crossfire??? thannks!Solid_Tango

SLI/Crossfire is 2 or more GPU's linked together for higher performance, better framerates, etc.

You can usually run up to 3 in SLI (or 2 GTX295 Dual GPU's in Quad-SLI) and up to 3-4 GPU's in Crossfire (Most people will usually use 3 single GPU's or 2 X2 Radeon's in Quadfire). I say 3 GPU's total cause alot of them take up 2 slots as it is depending on the room you have on the motherboard.

Hope that made some sense, I'm terrible at explaining things sometimes. ;)

Perhaps using those specifications, you can tell me exactly what graphics card I have then. Everything I've read on my computer says that this HD 4800 is the card I'm using.

This thread is awesome thanks!!!

Thanks for letting me know, but how can you tell?

Whoever bought an 8800gtx at release might of gotten one of , if not the best gpu value in history. Stilllow highend after all this time. Great list btw.

Hmm. I am use Radeon 4890. Is it true that gtx 275 is slower than radeon 4890? I know there is two version of radeon 4890. One is oc edition and non oc edition. Which one is faster than gtx 275? eagleonez

I'll be doggone... According to the list, my card is NUMBER ONE, muahahahaaaaa (evil laugh)

not to sure what im gonna get yet have money soon 2 gig 4850x2 or a 4890 im liking the 4850x2 more but both are good

Good job of color coding the list. :p

My card is #69 on the list, but it can play Company of Heroes, Bioshock, and Crysis and decent resolution and medium-high graphic settings.

Very helpful list and after reading I may reconsider my choice for GPU upgrade.

I was gonna go with the GTX+ 9800 which is like 18th on the list and see that the GS 250 is equal to the 9800 but smaller and takes less power and that they are the same price basically on newegg.com... so all that aside is the 250 notisibly faster than the 9800gtx+ or is it just the same card redesigned?

Either way with the pricing being the same and the 250 a newer version i'm better off getting that one right?

I'v jumped from 171 to 15 in my last upgrade :D

I went from 197 to 19 :D

-BROWNTOWN-

I went from 197 to 19 :D

when i get my new card i'll go from not even on the list to 18. :D

whoa. it's almost a year and i'm still on the 14th spot!:D

My card is sixth! Damn sixth! 4890 FTW

I ll be gettin the gtx 275, not bad uh? :DSolid_Tango

Hi What card do you have now? Hopefully you will get a big

jump in performance. Big jumps are the best!!! :D

Now that I have my GTX 285, all I can say is "Wow." I was expecting a decent jump from my GTX 260, but it's a light-year jump. Never thought I'd be maxing out Far Cry 2 @ 1920x1200 on a single-GPU solution :) (70FPS !=O!)

Did somebody just say that the 360 owns the 9800GX2??Bluff_Master_2

The 8600GT should be put up ahead of the 7600GT.
