AMD Radeon HD 7850 or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480

[norksinc]

I was looking on the futurmark website which compares graphics cards and it said that the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 was a bit better than the AMD Radeon HD 7850. Is this true or is the AMD Radeon HD 7850 better?

pretty sure i was maxed out 1080p 4x aa and i stayed above 25 fps felt smooth to me but its been a while since i had that card,but i dont remember it stuttering i remember it actually feeling really smooth for 25+ fps

ok my gtx 460 with 4xaa on my monitor gives me about 45+ fps in crysis on my old rig.well be happy with your gtx 480 have a nice day.

frame rates is personal preference,i feel comfortable at anything above 40 fps.gun fire is smooth and explosions are lag free.

460 Was a great card especially in SLI.No complaints about that card at all.I had a 7970/7950 crossfire but the drivers were really bad for xfire so i went with a proven card with proven drivers.Im basically going to get better then gtx 580 sli performance for under $400 cant beat that! I was able to purchase a 1300 watt psu with the money i had left over plus im still left with $200 so i made my pc more well rounded.

when did 30 fps become ultra!!!!

and scotty what is this resolution you play your ultra at? 800 x 600 (just checking, since apparently 30 fps is ultra)

Excuse me?

BF3 is my most demanding game and it never drops below 30 FPS on ultra, usually in the 40-50 range.

Other games FPS is much higher.

battlefield 3 isnt even close to the most demanding game.That goes to arma 2 but i dont want to get into that its already been covered.You max out arma with your rig you would be lucky to even see 20 fps.Also the gtx 465 was not faster then the gtx 460 atleast out of the box anyways.

^well,i think metro 2033 is also one of the most demanding game.

It is for sure just not on the level of witcher 2 and arma 2.I benched all of them in another thread with a single 7970 and the only 2 games not playable when maxing out all the settings were arma 2 and witcher 2.Metro is deffinetly in the top 5.
