The Vvikoo 8800GT-Max clocks at a lower 600/900 for GPU/MEM setting. This might impact it's performance when compared to other 8800GT that are factory clocked higher. In our comparison, the ECS 8800GT is factory clocked 650/950.

We ran the card with Intel QX9770 on Gigabyte GA-P35T-DQ6 mainboard. The first test is done based on it's original clk with the 3.2GHz (CPU). In the 2nd test, we overclock the card using Ntune to 780/950.

In the comparison chart, we also added a Gigabyte 8800GTS 512MB card to see how far the 8800GT can go to match the performance of a 8800GTS.

As we can see from the chart, the default 8800GT-MAX scored 18715 which is slower than the ECS 8800GT and Gigabyte 8800GTS. That is to be expected as it is factory defaulted at 600/900. With nTune, we move the clock upwards to 780/950. The similarly configured ECS 8800GT-MX can only be overclocked to 700/1000.The same benchmark was run and we scored 19615. This score is way higher than the ECS N8800GT-MX overclocked (700/1000). With this score, it also surpassed the performance of the Gigabyte 8800GTS.

3DMark06

The same test is done using 3Dmark06 as the benchmark. Running at default shows it's weakness with a score of 12449. Once we overclock the card to 780/950, the score jumped to 14271, far surpassing the performance levels you can get from the ECS 8800GT-MX or the Gigabyte GV-NX88S512H-B 8800GTS graphics card. A 4.1% lead in performance is registered against the fastest 8800GTS.
