R600 Benchmarks

whether or not this is fallacious, I have no doubt that the R600 will be faster than the current 8800GTX... ATI is taking their time with it and they know how fast the 8800 is, so they'll just find a way to make their card faster.. how much faster I am not sure and cooling/power issues aside.. anyways.. I'm still so happy with the new IQ Nvidia has brough the the table and I am personally planning on staying with my 8800GTX and getting another once the 680i mobos seem a little more cooked.
 
Hmmm could be real. January is right around the corner and if the R600 is released during January this would be the time where we start seeing all of these leak benchmarks that are somewhat real if not completely real. Specs looks good though.
 
If they would post pics of the card they would get some credibility, until then i can shens too.
 
Going with my gut, I'd call this one a fake. So much of the content in that "article" was "but wait until the better drivers come out!1!!!1!". Also telling was the lack of images - if you had one of those cards, and you were leaking benchmarks to the net, wouldn't you also leak some pics of the hardware?
 
FAKE. :rolleyes:
At this point in time, the R600 drivers should be not very stable, (at least not enough to be able to run benchmarks in all the games)...

How would you know that? :rolleyes:

Ima call shens too... the numbers for the 8800GTX are WAY too low...

Not endorsing the website but I'd hope the R600 is damned close to stable being a month away from it's debut :eek:
 
very FAKE it said 19 fps in oblivion @ 16x12 with 4xaa and 16xaf, I get MUCH higher frames at 1680x1050 with 8xtraa and 16xaf. This website is full of shit. They would be showing pics of the cards and screenshots if they were indeed legit.
 
Yea, this is definately fake. It's like the only article on the entire website, not to mention the fact that everything else is ads.It's just some guy looking to make money.

Even if the results were true, it wouldn't bold well for R600, granted Geforce 8800GTX will be nearly $100 less by the time R600 launches (and if the launch was in Jan., we'd already have heard something about it by now).

Oh, and did I mention there were no pictures, no specifications on what version of the card it was, and the fact that we've never heard of the website before.

So all-around, this is fake.
 
Well considering you can play Oblivion with maximum settings at 2560x1600 with a 8800GTX and they stated you couldn't, I very much doubt they even have one (8800). That is not even including the rest of the crap they put on those pages.
 
LOL

The entire site hosts one review and a ton of ads. Gee, could it be legit? :rolleyes:
 
Complete bullshit.

Just look at the site for fucks sake..
1) Who the hell is level 505?
2) Gee, the site was created 2 days ago and its the ONLY article on the entire site..
3) Nice generic template. The admin got his hands on an r600, but couldn't pay for webdesign? pfft.
4) I did a little background check.. Seems the site is hosted by godaddy.com lol. Why cant the person with so many contacts (obviously has some in ATI) get a private webserver?

Yea.. How about I post up a website with some graphs that I made in photoshop, cut and paste generic info about the card and some personal ramblings and then try to get people to believe it.
 
:rolleyes:

Yeah, no company has put out propoganda to push interest in its product even though they can't break their own NDA. This would keep ppl who were/are on the fence hanging a little longer instead of just jumping to the 8800. Don't put it past them is all I am saying.

I highly doubt R600 is coming in the end of January anyway. More like March(for the general public) by the way ATI releases cards.
 
write an article on a very anticipated product that people are doing lots of research on, your website will get traffic, then ads banners site ranking follows.
 
Has ATI lifted any NDA's on the R600 yet?

If not (I don't believe they have), it's almost certainly a fake. Simple logic dictates it. Also, who is Level 505? I can't believe that some tiny site I've never heard of would be the first to post full benchmarks of a piece of hardware gamers have been waiting for for months. As others have said, it appears to be the only review on the site, and there are no pictures.

The site is extremely slow, but I compared their test results to The Tech Report's, just for fun. A direct comparison can't be made due to differences in the way tests were run, but when you consider that Level 505 got 87.1FPS in HL2: Loast Coast with an 8800GTX, and that the Tech Report got 147.7 in HL2:Episode 1, at the same settings (1600x1200, 4xaa+16xaf), it seems pretty clear that the "testing" seems way off. Also, compare the Oblivion results and comments from Level 505:

"You can actually play Oblivion at 1600×1200 with ATI’s R600. The minimum frame rate for a “fluid” game experience is 25 fps, but we do recommend to use a pair of R600s or GeForce 8800GTXs to play at this resolution."

Hmm...I can play Oblivion fine at 1920x1200 with my Geforce 8800GTS fluidly; that's with 4xAA, Bloom lighting, and high quality textures. GTX owners can do far better than I can, so I really call shens on this one. Level 505's results list the 8800GTX getting 19.5fps at 1600x1200 with 4xAA+16xAF. The Tech Report gets between 41-54fps in Ultra quality on the 8800GTX --at a resolution of 2048x1536. Level 505 didn't even bother to rip realistic results on production Geforce/Radeon cards from other sites, so if those scores are wrong, how likely is it that the R600 scores are right?

Whether or not R600 is faster than the G80, we don't know yet. All I do know is that the review on Level 505's site seems full of inaccuracies, and appears to be completely unbelievable.
 
I would have to agree on the suspicious nature of Level 505 and this review. The 8800GTX numbers seem seriously low, contradicting almost all other 8800 series reviews from reputable sites. I wouldn't put much stock in this whatsoever.

People stare at bars like it's food.

It could be someone who is under NDA and don't want to bring his official site in danger.

And about the Oblivion results, maybe he used this area in Oblivion: This destroys the 8800GTX

If someone had a site under NDA and didn't want to bring it into danger, they wouldn't post an out-of-NDA comparison on another site. These things have a way of coming back to haunt the original site, if they're real. And if someone was risking posting out-of-NDA, why wouldn't they risk posting pictures of the hardware they're testing?

Let's assume that the Oblivion stuff is right, just for the sake of argument. Then why do the other benches listed on Level 505's site appear to be wrong as well? Halfe Life 2: The Lost Coast is way off, and it isn't the only one. If you compare review after review (HardOCP's, The Tech Report, Firingsquad, etc.) to this one, it doesn't match up.
 
Why does he keep referring to it as "R600"? R600 is the name of the chip. The name of the retail products are decided, and it's obvious he doesn't know what they are (nor does he make attempts to guess).

Complete fabrication.
 
Besides the other fishy things people have pointed out, some of these benchmarks show X1950 Xfire beating the 8800GTX and R600, both of which are ridiculous.

That being said, I have no doubts R600 will be marginally faster than the 8800 series. It's going to be the same as X1900 versus 7900, only reversed: ATI will be marginally faster, but nVidia will win out on it's clearly superior IQ.
 
HAHA My 8800gtx runs fear at 93fps and his runs it at 75 at same settings, WAAYYY fake.
 
The site review and benchies really looks kindda believable, at least for lamers like myself, thank you guys for the enlightenment... :p

What a shame, I though it was real... :eek:

agreed. The mere fact that the bench numbers are wrong for every other card are way off was a red flag for me. Gotta give whoever made the site credit, great way to get lots of traffic

Agree there is no way that a cheap site like that can get a r600 LOL and the numbers are way off! load of crap.
 
Yeah right. I doubt there are even final boards yet. Besides ATI does too well in Doom III.
