It will be interesting to see how the RADEON's 256MB framebuffer comes into play when AntiAliasing and Anisotropic Filtering are added into the mix. Benchmarks were carried out three times and the highest and lowest results, assuming that all three were in the same ballpark, were excluded.
PNY Verto 6600 GT's 2D quality was tested on a Dell P991 (rebadged Sony) 19" Trinitron monitor. 2D, via HD15, was pretty sharp at 1280x1024 @ 85Hz, the monitor's recommended resolution. Further, DVI quality was tested on a Dell 2001FP 20" TFT. Again, no complaints here, as the picture was sharp and clear at the panel's native 1600x1200 resolution.
On to the tests.
