Het volk van 3Dsl.com heeft een paar GeForce 256 benchmarks uit de november editie van PC Pro op hun site geplakt:
The following results have been taken from PC Pro magazine November issue preview of the GeForce 256. The drivers used were an early beta set and we can only expect the performance to improve over the coming days as testers use newer drivers.The test machine was a Pentium III P550, 128MB RAM.
Considering that the 3D Mark test used standard drivers, the old version of direct x and the current 3D mark the results of that test are amazing. Expect GeForce to rip these results apart even further as drivers get optimised and Direct X 7.0 becomes more widely adopted. Remember that hardware T&L, cube environment mapping and all the other new features aren't even being utilised here!
De performance in Quake II ziet er niet slecht uit: 54,6fps vs 26,6fps (TNT2 Ultra) op 1600x1200. In 3DMark99 is het verschil klein, maar dat wordt hopelijk beter bij gebruik van DirectX7 en nieuwe GeForce drivers. De getallen check je hier.
