Graphics Card Review: DirectX 11 – ATI vs nVidia [CHIP Editor]

nVidia GeForce GTX 480

Chip ATI nVidia again outperformed the benchmark Crysis (84 versus 79 FPS FPS), PT Boats: Knights of the Sea (53.1 versus 48.7 FPS FPS), and World in Conflict (57 versus 54 FPS FPS). The advantages of ATI nVidia GF100 new Cypress evident on the game Unreal Tournament III (168 FPS versus 121 FPS) in high resolution. Exceptions occur in the benchmark Quake Wars, where the GTX 480 subdued in HD 5870 (117 FPS versus 123 FPS).

Similar results were obtained in the PCMark benchmark graphics tests. GTX 480 reached 28,257 points, while the HD 5870 reached 29 475 points. Referring Raw Computing Power (apart from gaming graphics performance), more powerful HD 5870 2700 GFLOPS (giga floating point operations per second), with double accuracy (vital in scientific calculations) almost reaches 550 GFLOPS. The GTX 480 brings the power of GLFOP 1345 and 672 GFLOPS (at double accuracy).

Another aspect under consideration is power consumption and noise level graphics card. GTX 480 requires 6 and 8 pin connections are not always included in each PSU (Power Supply Unit). GTX 480 can consume 50 watts power only for standard Windows operation. In load mode, consumption is even up to 300 W. ATI HD 5870 is more efficient in terms of this one because it only requires two 6 pin connections with power consumption 20 Watt (Windows Aero) and 190 Watt (load mode).

The same condition also occurs in the noise level. GTX 480 has 1.8 Sone noise level (idle mode) and jumped on the load mode to 12 Sone, a record for a graphics card that had been stopped by the lab CHIP. The HD 5870 has only 0.9 Sone at idle mode and the maximum value of 3.1 Sone (load mode) is relatively user’s ear can still be tolerated.
