AquaMark
is another DirectX 8 benchmark. Using vertex shaders, any card that is DirectX8
compatible will not just have a huge speed boost, the image will also look
better. Default test has 24 MB worth of textures.
Pretty
much any card will perform well in AquaMark right now. Here we see that the
Albatron GeForceFX 5700 Ultra GDDR3 is just slightly faster than the regular
GeForceFX 5700 Ultra.
Even at
higher resolutions the Albatron card can keep a very slight performance
advantage over the regular GeForceFX 5700 Ultra.
