This special First Look roundup spans the range of workstation graphics card performance, from entry level to top end, The entry-level graphics card is a newly introduced ATI FireGLT2-128 card with 128MB of RAM. The top-end card is NVIDIA'S FX 3000, which boasts 256MB of RAM. Both cards were tested on a state-of-the-art dual Opteron 64-bit CAD workstation from @Xi Computer. There are several firsts with this roundup: The system based on dual AMD Opteron 1,8GHz 64-bit processors is the first that we've run through our benchmarks. This is also the first time we've fully tested under Microsoft Windows XP Professional. As anticipated, performance figures were somewhat lower under Windows XP Professional than under Windows 2000, and some features of the XP operating system don't make for the easiest benchmark testing. Nevertheless, because XP Professional is installed on many new workstations, we test it here.
