Bij Tresh's Firing Squad hebben ze eens gemeten wat de nieuwe AMD Thunderbird allemaal doet in 3D-applicaties (lees: spellen). Ze waren ook nog eens zo aardig de resultaten online te zetten. Wat opviel was dat de GeForce2GTS het erg goed deed met de T-bird, maar dat de prestaties van de Voodoo5 5500 nogal tegenvielen. Stabiliteit van het systeem was bij alle testen goed te noemen.
If you're looking for the fastest video card to go with your brand new Thunderbird system, the GeForce 2 GTS is currently the best solution available. It will be interesting to see how the Voodoo5 drivers mature, we're sure 3dfx fans would like to see those low resolution numbers improve.
While we didn't test the Thunderbird system for an extended period of time, we didn't encounter any stability issues or crashes that would suggest the platform is unreliable. We'll delve into this more as soon as we get a Thunderbird processor for extended testing, as we're sure many of our readers are wondering how well the system will hold up under more pressure.
