GeForce 3 (ELSA Gladiac 920) Review - tech
|
| (hx) 08:14 PM CEST - May,01 2001 |
 EuroGamer has written an in-depth review of NVIDIA's
new GeForce 3, in this case an ELSA Gladiac 920 card.
"Having used the GeForce 3 for quite a while now, along with a similar system using a Radeon 64Mb DDR, I can quite honestly say that I have noticed a difference, and disappointingly, it’s in the Radeon’s favour. Although the GeForce 3 definitely handles matters a lot better than the Radeon (and is the first graphics card on our testbed to run 3D action monster Tribes 2 flawlessly at high resolutions), its competitor from ATI just looks slightly sharper at times, and that sort of distinction is important. Using identical settings (1024x768x32 with 4xFSAA) and running Quake III Arena as a common example, the definition of the scene was simply superior on the ATI Radeon. Of course performance was in the GeForce 3’s favour (the Radeon was almost unusable with those settings in Quake III). Whether this makes a difference will have to be decided on a personal level, but if you need a more common benchmark (after all, most potential GeForce 3 buyers will already own NVIDIA cards), the visuals of the GeForce 2 GTS are pretty much of the same quality under certain circumstances as the GeForce 3. In terms of performance though as we have seen, the GeForce 2 gets beaten black and blue."
