Notes

Even in a flight sim like LOMAC, the GeForce 8800 GTX is CPU-bound with pretty much all of AMD’s CPUs, including the FX-62 at lower resolutions. Even at 1920x1200 performance is within 7% of the frame rate we saw at 1280x1024 with the GeForce 8800 GTX/FX-62 combination.

As a result, there are many cases where slower GPUs like the GeForce 8800 GTS are able to outperform the GeForce 8800 GTX if it’s paired with the right processor. This is something you’ll want to keep in mind if you’re into flight sims, this titles are more CPU-bound than other games we test with, so pairing the GTX with a fast CPU is critical to ensuring optimal performance.

The GeForce 8800 GTS is also CPU-bound with the X2 3800+ and 4200+ .
