Confusing benchmark...
http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/...de,1928-8.html
Why is the 7950 performing above the 8800 at low resolutions?
From the first chart:
7950 GT (512 MB) Q6600@3.2 = 42.9fps
8800 GT OC (512 MB) Q6600@3.2 = 34.0fps
WTF?

Re: Confusing benchmark...
In the beginning of the article:
Note that the Geforce 6800 GT and Geforce 7950 GT run with the image quality set at Low (1280, 1680, 1920 pixels) and at Medium (1280 pixels), whereas the Geforce 8 and 9 were tested at High (1280, 1680, 1920 pixels) and Very High (1280 pixels). These settings are necessary for the older graphics card to be in a position to send a playable number of frames to the monitor. These differences mean that sometimes a weaker graphics chip can move up to a higher position in the rankings than a more powerful Geforce 8 or 9. The better frame rate is, in these cases, only achieved by reducing the image quality.
