TriFire 5870's vs 285TriSLI benched

mlee49 · 10-25-2009, 05:39 AM

I came across this from a link over at EVGA forums, look how the 5870's scale(and to think with limited driver support!)

Looks like our buddy Wasted at Benchmarkextreme.com has some killer sponsorship along with alot of time on his hands! Hey Wasted, send me some stuff to review!!!

What do you mean by that?
I'm new into the pc gaming realm (SWTOR has brought me into it whenever that releases) so I'm used to consoles where everything pretty much works right out the get go. Is there a more predominant chip (nvidia vs ati) that causes these or is it the games themselves regardless of what graphics card you have?
