hey again:

I'm sure some other folks here can give you a better picture of this but for what it's worth here are a couple of thoughts.

1) Thanks for the reply on what your running,  it really shouldn't be a limiter for the test so we can set  that aside.

2) Everyone is right,  the newer card should blow the other one away.  Try a few things before you say they are "about the same" First change settings to max out the cards work.  Use higher than normal resolution and turn on anti hazing to max.

The newer card has capabilties that you aren't using if you don't have the things turned up...  You might find that at 1024X768 without anti both perform the same.  However at 1600X1200 with full anti you might find the older card gets smoked.

I'm running an ATI with 512Mg and it is only so so performance wise until I turn up the heat,  then it holds on fine when my old card cried for mercy...

That is a great point!  the new Geforce 7800 series is the same or slower than the 6800 in low resolution tests.. but when you put 4x AA and 8x AF the card will wip the crap out of everything.. we are talking about a 3 fps difference..
