New ShaderMark Test Results

NewsFactory

3DVelocity have put up some new ShaderMark results for the Geforce FX and ATI Radeons. They are using a new ShaderMark version which has re-ordered shaders to prevent all current driver optimization from working. The results are interesting to say the least!

OOOF! The Radeon 9700 Pro TRASHED the FX... Good news post NewsFactory... as usual.

Pretty bad when the Shaders on the 9500 non pro, are more powerful than the shaders on the "HIGHEST END" Geforce you can get!
