We dabbled in nVidia and Intel parts a lot in previous projects, it's time to show some appreciation for their competition.

I had 775 socket motherboard with E7500 dual core. It was inconsistent in performance with different cards. Especially bad performance with AMD cards. I did not know it until I made a full AMD system with Phenom II 550. My AMD video cards doubled in performance and stuttering disappeared. I was very happy with that system. Worth to mention that both motherboards were high end.

Hardware incompatibilities were a lot more prevalent 10+ years ago. Dabbling with BIOS versions and drivers might alleviate those issues, but sometimes there is nothing to be done. You probably encountered some with your intel socket motherboard, as I can personally confirm that E7500 works great with AMD cards. - M

@@attictiertech It was a motherboard issue, not CPU. Last bios. Even with 8800 GTs, one works well and another not seen by the motherboard.

Ah, a good old bottle cap as a balancer of GPUs.

Enjoyable and to the point. P.S. Forza.H4 is just a genre of its own, though quite broken with recent drivers.

In this era, nvidia was doing some really shady deals in their "way it's meant to be played" campaign. Hair works and rendering water under the ground and stuff like that. It's not really ati's/amd's fault. Gotta play with the settings though. I played through crysis at near max details on an x1950gt back then but had to tweak the things that slowed it down for sure.

It's only gotten worse, instead of having the game tweaked for Nvidia cards, they are now just making you pay more for them because "Ray Tracing".

Yeah HD 3870 didn't quite match the 8800 gt back in the day but price too performance was great on the card when the Nvidia 8800 gt was more expensive by i think 20% or so. Anandtech still has their reviews up it seems too. Depending on the game 66% - 101% of the performance too the 8800 gt at 1280x1024 resolution. Feel free too check out the HD 4890 as well the last of the direct x 10 era before amd's/ati's great hd 5000 series cards launched, overclocking the hd 4890 gave a pretty good boost in performance, think it was 13 - 15% if you hit 1 ghz on the core & ran 975 mhz on memory clock.

that heatsink base was so naroow compared to the cpu, were the temps not high on it ?

@attictiertech 9 ай бұрын

Nope, they were pretty low. It is not necessary to cover the whole IHS if you can dissipate heat well enough. I would not recommend that with newer CPUs though :D
