Gigabyte GV-N285OC-2GI Geforce GTX 285 2GB Videocard Review
Gigabyte GV-N285OC-2GI Geforce GTX 285 2GB Videocard Review - PCSTATS
Everything you'd expect form a NVIDIA GT200b-based videocard is here: NVIDIA PhysX, CUDA, Hybridpower, 3-way SLI, Purevideo and Graphics Plus. Support for DirectX 10, OpenGL 2.1 are of course included as well, although NVIDIA has stated that it will be skipping DirectX 10.1 support altogether and instead go straight to DirectX 11.

Videocard Benchmarks: FEAR

Sierra FEAR 1.08

Source: Sierra

FEAR is Sierra's latest first person shooter which relies heavily on DirectX 9 features. With its "Soft Shadows" feature enabled, even the fastest videocards run at a crawl, FEAR is definitely the new benchmark for future FPS games to follow.

In older games like FEAR, shaders and stream processors don't make as big a difference as texturing performance, which means that multi-GPU graphics cards do better. The Geforce GTX 285 still manages to beat out the Radeon HD 4890 in this benchmark, but both single-GPU videocards are outperformed by a number of multi-GPU setups.
