Solely because it's clocked higher. I was wrong about the 7850 running at 1GHz (mine does but it was an overclocked card), the default is 860Mhz. Radeon 370 runs at 975Mhz, or ~13% faster. 1.76 Gigaflops x 1.13 = 1.98 Gigaflops. Again, they are the same architecture, yet a 13% clock increase has erased a 30% speed deficit by your numbers, demonstrating that it is more recent drivers optimized for the later games used in your comparison that makes the difference.
What you have proved is that flops is silly metric to use to compare performance with unless you are only doing compute. But that's all you can really conclude from your data, nothing more. |
That was my intention all along. You seem to take "my data" too seriously, I even put on the OP that I was too lazy to calculate a real average avantage for the 950, so I invented one instead. How come that didn't raise any flags about how serious I was being in my calculations?
