Graphics card market see continuing advance of ATI and fall of NVIDIA in measure of performence and price. But NVIDIA try to outperform ATI with its new series of graphics card.
The GTX 480 could be the fastest graphics card in the market, and it outperforms rival Advanced Micro Devices' fastest ATI Radeon HD 5870 cards, said Kelt Reeves, president of enthusiast PC maker Falcon Northwest. The card hits new highs of GPU performance, especially in installations where multiple graphics cards are used in systems.
In Falcon Northwest's benchmarks for the game Crysis, one GTX 480 displayed high-definition images at 30 frames per second on a 24-inch monitor, and two GTX 480s displayed at 58 frames per second. By contrast, a single ATI Radeon HD 5870 in the same tests yielded 31 frames per second, and two 5870s scored 44 frames per second.
GTX 480 will bring the best gaming and multimedia experience to PCs of any card on the market. The native support for DirectX 11 tools should provide for realistic images and sound when playing games or watching movies. DirectX 11 includes a set of APIs (application programming interfaces) to improve multimedia on Windows 7 systems.
