SE, XT or LE?
I'm so confused with nvidia's extensions.. Not sure which card is
faster/slower... Let's take a 5700. How do these 4 cards line up speed wise? 5700 5700LE 5700XT 5700SE I'm assuming LE is somewhat slower than 5700, while SE is slowest and XT is fastest? Like in ATI, but it can't be that straight forward |

SE and XT for Nvidia are clocked Slower.

The PNY 5900SE comes with Call of Duty and NVDVD(but I think most cards come with NVDVD anyways), which is a good deal for $180. But when it comes down to specs, these models use exactly the same GPU. There should be no noticable benchmark differences, unless you happen to find a model that features 2.2ns ram and not the default reference 2.8ns. I know at least one of these cards exists... Leadtek makes one. But it's pretty rare for a high end budget card to feature ram that competes with the 5950 Ultra. |
