Best Bang-for-buck GPU March 4th 2010
Here are the results for GpuBang, my gpu performance-per-price calculator. It crawls the passmark benchmark database for benchmark numbers and newegg for prices.
The numbers shown are percentage relative to the performance-per-price average, here is the formula 100*(((performance/cost)/performancePerCostAverage)-1).
So the winner out of this set would be the 7900gs(out of stock ) at 128% above the performance-per-price average. Right behind it is the GeForce 9600 GT at 99.97% above average and the Radeon HD 4850 at 99.49%.
The loser is the GeForce 6200 LE at -87% below average. Hilariously, if you click the link and visit the newegg page, some noob is saying it is good value for the money.
Enjoy,
