Zotac Nvidia Geforce Gtx 470 Amp

How we tested

As ever, we did our best to deliver a make clean ready of benchmarks, with each test repeated three times and an average of those results is what we're reporting here. In the rare example where performance was inconsistent, nosotros connected repeating the test until we got iii results that were consistent.

The tests performed are a mixture of custom in-game timedemos and manually played sections, using FRAPS to record the average and minimum frame rates. We strive to non merely tape real-earth operation you will really see, but as well present the results in a manner that is easy to digest.
