BFG 9800GTX OCX Graphics Card Review

by Michael "SKYMTL" Hoenig     |     April 20, 2008

3DMark06

While some may wonder at the use of still including 3DMark06 in the tests it gives us a good idea of the basic limitations of a graphics card. Since the standard test runs at 1280x1024 there will be a fair amount of CPU bottlenecking with higher-end cards and remember that in some cases a higher 3DMark score does not equate better performance.




Even though both the core got an approximate 10% overclock from stock and the memory was overclocked 100Mhz, these overclocks seem to boost performance quite a bit. The OCX ekes out about 800 points more in this test than the original 9800GTX we tested a short while ago.
