BFG GTX 260 OCX MAXCORE (216SP) 896MB Video Card Review

3DMark Vantage

3DMark Vantage is the follow-up to the highly successful 3DMark06. It uses exclusively DX10 so if you are running Windows XP, you can forget about running this benchmark. However, it presents us with a truly stressful test of any modern graphics card so we have decided to begin including it in our testing procedure.

Overall Score

GPU Score

In a less CPU-bound synthetic test like this one, the OCX is able to pull a bit further out front of the EVGA card and well ahead of any serious competition from ATI.
