We skipped testing F1 Career Challenge for now, since Forceware 77.72 we used has a bug which causes very slow frame rates with shadows enabled. We're looking at newer drivers to see if NVIDIA fixed that bug, but you can probably guess that the performance of the card very much matches the other GeForce 6600GT. Moving on to Nascar 2003, we see that the Gigabyte GeForce 6600GT Silent Pipe is again around 2 fps faster, nearly reaching the 50 fps mark.

We've added some new games to our benchmark suite - Brothers in Arms, SW: Knights of the Old Republic and Homeworld 2. We didn't test all the GeForce 6600GT in the last round up with these games, that's why you're only seeing two graphics card scores. As you can see, Brothers In Arms really likes more bandwidth - the Gigabyte GeForce 6600GT is faster by a wide margin than the reference GeForce 6600GT (around 12 fps). With 4x AA and 16x AF, the difference is smaller (3 fps), probably since the core clock is the same.
