Performance
Earlier in this review we told
you that the GeForce2 GTS is a good performer, well knowing you you
probably want some evidence of that. Therefore we did some tests and
took some benchmarks which are made with Dagoth Moor, 3D Mark 2000 (of
course!) and Quake III Arena.
Dagoth Moor
First up, we did some benchmarks with Dagoth moor. I used my new test bed,
an Athlon Thunderbird system running at 700 MHz. I chose for this
platform since many of you asked us to use an Athlon system with the
GeForce for a change. Hey we listen to you guys !
Test System
Gigabyte 7ZX KT133 Mainboard
AMD 700 MHz Athlon Thunderbird
128 MB CAS2 SDRAM (Corsair
memory)
Creative SB Live! Platinum
3COM 3C900B-TPO Ethernet Card
Windows 98 Second Edition
DirectX 7.0a
NVIDIA GeForce2 GTS - Driver: Detonator 5.22
We took Dagoth Moor as a benchmark
since it's specially designed and developed for the GeForce's Hardware
T&L chipset.
The results will resemble a perfectly
good comparison between the power of the GeForce2 MX and it's young
brother the GeForce2 GTS.

Well, nothing too special here, the
performance of the GeForce2 GTS is right on par with your average
GeForce2 GTS and is of course faster than a GeForce MX.
