Well not much in GTA4, but now I can play with high textures fine, didn't see any popins at all, also other settings are higher too, and FPS is only slightly better. So I got small FPS improvement in GTA4 with better gfx.

GTA4 isn't really the best benchmark, in CoDWaW and COD4 minimum FPS is now more than twice higher, average fps is twice higher. In source engine games about 70% fps boost. And huge improvement in other games too, didn't check FPS in them yet but I felt it, and it felt oh my so good. I'm very very happy that I didn't buy ATI fail Smile

Sounds sweet. i was just curious about GTA4.

Don't like the support for ATI cards. I think you made the right choice

What's with all the ATi hate?

*snuggles my 4850, murmuring "There, there.. it's ok baby.. it's ok...*


Seriously though, nice purchase! The GTX range are stonking cards and the new Core216 is an awesome middle-ground between the 260 and the 280. I'll bet you're well chuffed with it!

Heh yeah, what's even better is that my c216 is factory OC'ed, so it's even faster than stock GTX 280 and much faster than HD 4870 1GB Smile
