By combining DirectX8 support with completely new graphics, 3DMark2001 SE continues to provide good overall system benchmarks. 3DMark2001SE has been created in cooperation with the major 3D accelerator and processor manufacturers to provide a reliable set of diagnostic tools. The suite demonstrates 3D gaming performance by using real-world gaming technology to test a system's true performance abilities. Tests include: DirectX8 Vertex Shaders, Pixel Shaders and Point Sprites, DOT3 and Environment Mapped Bump Mapping, support for Full Scene Anti-aliasing and Texture Compression and two game tests using real-time physics.

MSI NX6800-TD128E (6800 SLI 436/776) 27435

Decent but not overwhelming results here on our first 3D benchmark. The single MSI NX6800-TD128E comes close to 6800GT performance levels when overclocked, and the stock and overclocked SLI setups prove equal to X800XL and XT performance respectively.

3DMark05 is the latest version of the highly favoured 3DMark graphics benchmarking series. It is the first benchmark to require DirectX9.0 compliant hardware with support for Pixel Shader 2.0 or higher!

MSI NX6800-TD128E (6800 SLI) 6478
MSI NX6800-TD128E (6800 SLI 436/776) 6854

Much better results here. The single MSI NX6800-TD128E bests its 6800GT big brother in 3DMark 05 when overclocked, and the SLI setup is considerably faster than anything else in the roundup. SLI overclocking gave a noticeable performance boost too.
