I like articles that analyze application performance using different CPU and/or GPU models and speeds. Kudos to firingsquad for tackling the additional testing.
Anonymous post from March 19 makes an excellent point. Editorial guidance would have improved this article. If firingsquad has the resources, re-run the benchmarks as suggested.
» agp and pci-e versions of the x1950pro on Asrock 775Dual-VSTA? Has anyone compared the performance of agp and pci-e versions of the x1950pro on the Asrock 775Dual-VSTA?
AGP and pci-e versions of the 6800 ultra have similar performance on the 775Dual-VSTA.

I am wondering if the 4x PCI-E on the Asrock will be a noticeable bottleneck with a GPU faster than the 6800Ultra.
