which is which its hard to see.

[XiaoPigs]

Wait which is which? I am confused. Could you label them pretty please? :)

Synthetic benchmarking programs are sketchy, they're good for stress testing but not so much in performance comparisons. Benchmark using something like Metro 2033's benchmarking tool or some other intensive game.

If i'm reading that properly it says one is only running 4x aa and the other is running 8x??

I am confused by the setting, the GTX570 is doing 8xAA but @1902x1068, Windowed? While the HD7870 is doing 1080P, 4xAA but full screen? Not exactly the same setting, is it? Anyway, the result doesn't track, the HD7870 should be as fast, if not faster than, the GTX570:

My mate has a 1.2gig reference 570 and max settings, 8x AA at 1080 he scores roughly 750ish... the 7870 should be able to beat that i believe my 670 pulls around 1150-1200ish from memory maxxed at 1080... these figures are out there :/

Very sketchy test results I must say though. You should clarify what settings you used for the benchmarks in the future and also what drivers you're on.

The image is 1920 x 1080 so if you open the image in a new tab it should fill out. Though I know the res is not perfect everything else is matched and my loan 570(right) still holds to if price give or take. If I was on something other the a iPhone 3gg I would post full results and benches

The 570 was run windowed, while the 7870 was run fullscreen
