Again we're seeing the X800XL is basically rendering every frame as fast as the Athlon 64 3000+ can. We don't see any difference until we hit 1280 x 1024 and 1600 x 1200 with AA and AF. The GeCube X800XL is still faster (up to 3 fps difference) but all cards produce around the same minimum and average fps (2 - 3 fps difference).

Nascar 2003 is already system limited on the X700 Pro and GeForce 6600GT, so we won't see any difference here. All cards basically have the same performance since it can render no faster than the processor. Out of the first four games, we can see that all X800XL have what it takes for high resolution gaming with AA and AF, even on 1600 x 1200. What does it take to bring down the fps on these cards? Let's look at newer games with more shader content and detail.
