Run it full screen and check.
5770 performs slower than GTX 8800???
2
I just swapped out my 2-year old GTX 8800 for a SAPPHIRE 5770. I ran the "Heaven" benchmark for Directx 11 and was surprised to see the score/FPS come out lower than what I got last week on my GTX 8800 on this same system.
This is the first time I've used an ATI card. I downloaded the driver from here for Windows 7 (64bit) and I am pretty sure it's the right one.

Could the problem be attributed to the relatively premature drivers for Windows 7? Although if the problem was related to the OS

I'm in no way an Nvidia fan any longer but I'll admit when they make a damn good card. the 8800 GT came out back in 07' and it still easily holds up to today's games. I can't imagine what the GTX is like. The 5770 is an iffy card at best. most go for either the 4770s, 4870s, or 5800 series cards. But yeah I'd doublecheck the DX11/9/10 thing mentioned above. That might be the issue.
ATI ftw!

I'm using 9.11. Where do I get 9.12 beta? The link you provided requires an account for the download

Rerun the benchmark on your 5770 in DX10
No way should I have gotten a better score than you. Except maybe for the CPU, but I don't think so, cpu use never went about 17%.

An iffy card? How do you figure? From the benchmarks I've seen, the 5770 is comparable with the 4870 (which easily beats out the 8800GT), and that's on day-one drivers! Personally, I think it is a great middle ground for getting started with DX11 if you don't have $300 to drop on a video card.

Interesting..I did not know about tesselation. I disabled it and ran the test again, did much better this time around, but the tests can't really be compared at this point since the parameters between them has changed. Then again, I suppose the tests were the same to begin with since the 8800 does not support D11. At least this gives me a point of reference.

Press F2 (I may be wrong) to see wireframe then do I think F3 for tesselation on and off with your 5770. Bricks shall be shat. |
Run it at this setting and compare, I'd like to see what it is compared to my G92.

You know what doesn't make sense in those two screens... look at what it says under "Render:" it shows the 8800 rendering in DX11. Am I missing something?

I was actually thinking the same thing. Somethings not right there.
