There is a difference between numerical performance comparisons and graphical results. Everyone is factoring "out" the fact that it uses modern technologies that are simply impossible on the older hardware components that they are trying to retroactively compare it to.

The numerical on paper performance and what they GPU can actually output on screen are two completely different things. Its like saying that because two boxes(one filled filled with tools (one with old wooden tools and the other filled with dynamic stainless steel modern tools) and supplies weigh the same, that the potential of the wooden tools is the limit of the steel tools.

Showing numbers is one things. What is done with those numbers is another. You can't do Tesselation on a 7800GT or 8800 GTS or use shader modal 5.0 features.

 

Yeah lol because a nerfed 6570 will tessalate like a beast!  LOL you do realize that a $30 6450 can run all those things you said right?   But is it playable?  NO!  


It sure couldn't run those things that well. Its good thing we arne't talking about that GPU, but one that is stronger and "can" run all of those things.
