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.

Here in 3DMark2001 we see that overclocking boosts the overall score quite
nicely. Even at stock speed, the ATi Radeon X800 XL does very well for itself
and is able to beat the MSI GeForce 6800GT.
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!

At stock speed, the ATi Radeon X800 XL is not quite able to break the 5k
barrier but when overclocked, it's almost as fast as the high end MSI X800 XT.
Not bad for a "value" card!
