The nVidia GeForce 7800 GTX graphics processor takes a modest improvement in specs and delivers a whole lot more performance -- leaving rival ATI behind in the extreme-gaming benchmarks.
This version of nVidia's graphics processor benefits from a detailed performance profile of 1,300 games. In essence, nVidia spent its time tuning and preening the internal architecture to make operations more efficient and faster. Worth noticing is the hardware assist to video processing. In a couple of generations, I can see a nVidia offloading the weighty task of high-definition television (HDTV) encoding and decoding -- just as HDTV takes off.
If you live or die by frames-per-second -- and all gamers do -- then this this $600 graphics card is for you.
