Barefeats Tests the NVidia GeForce GTX 285

After XLR8Yourmac, Barefeats also released its test of the new NVidia GeForce GTX 285 Mac Edition. First test performed at high resolution 2560x1600, illustrate the raw power hosted in this card, and makes its shinning more than what we could have imagined it from the test released by XLR8Yourmac.

In summary, the card is the fastest native Mac graphic ard on the market, especially with applications/games relying on open GL 2.0. It appears to be 5 to 25 % faster than the Radeon HD 4870. We have tested our Radeon HD 4890 PC version with the Open GL benchmark, and it ranks second behind the GTX 285 but it is 25 % faster than the HD 4870. However, one should keep in mind that the Radeon HD 4890 Pc version cost 50 % less than the GeForce GTX 285!
