The

Once
again, these tests were taken on a P2-333 Overclocked to 500 MHz. w/
128MB of RAM. |

As
you can see we were able to clock the S320II at 162MHz. this time
without any adverse affects. We were able to reach higher clock
speeds but there was noticeable visual artifacts and occasional lock
ups. I
have a feeling, with more advanced cooling methods, this chip has a
lot more headroom. In any case, these are blistering fast scores! |

I
really like the way the TNT2 scales in the higher resolutions and
with heavy texture loads like in the Crusher Demo. This card is the
Quake 2 Crusher Demo King! |

Kingpin
Timedemo Benchmark

Kingpin is the
latest and greatest FPS with a graphics designed in 32bit color from
the ground up. It deals a heavy blow to any graphics engine in terms
of sheer polygon count and textures. The TNT2 did very well here,
boasting high res. 32 bit performance at a silky smooth 38+ FPS.
Truly, this is a card that will keep pace with technology for some
time to come. Last but not least we fired up 3DMark 99!
Tested
at 800X600 16Bit Color
This score is
pretty impressive since the last time we saw the TNT2 16MB card,it
scored around 3,300. Once again, fantastic performance from the
WinFast S320II.

In
closing I want to point out that this card, although not
representative of the top end performance of the TNT2 (we can't wait
for Leadtek's Ultra version!), it is currently one of the fastest
video cards on the market. The 3D image quality is absolutely the
best money can buy at this point in time. With 32MB of SGRAM on
board, it is hard to beat this combination! |

the hose! This card is on fire!
