:shock: Woaaah!! They must run a bitch!! Have you played any late games like crysis under them? Know the fps on a newish game?
Yeah, Crysis still runs a bit bad though... it's because that game is programmed like crap.
Not to get off topic here, but here are some framerates I get on various things, running DX10 in Vista Home Premium:
Crysis
Medium Detail - 100-130+ fps
High Detail - 50-70+ fps
Very High Detail - 20-40+ fps
Assassins Creed
Very High Detail - 170-230+ fps
Racedriver GRID
Very High Detail - 120-150+ fps
Mass Effect
Very High Detail - 150-200+ fps
3D Mark 06
Return to Proxycon - rough average fps 50-60
Cellfactor
Very High Detail (motion blur on) - 20-30 fps
Very high Detail (motion blur off) - 60 fps constant (capped)
And don't bother with cloth dynamics, I got like 1 fps lol.
