Radeon HD 7770
According to PassMark's benchmark the G3D score was around 2400 two weeks ago, and now it's around 3400!
THIS IS INSANELY WRONG!
I've been watching this card and GTX 660 since Black Friday and saw the big jump in score for the HD7770 on PassMark's website, which made it on par w/ GTX 560Ti. So I went for it and got myself one immidately. Damn fxxk I was wrong!
Downloaded the latest version PerformanceTest and ran a test myself, with my XFX Radeon HD7770 double-d OC'd to max @ 1.2GHz Core & 1.3GHz memory, the best I can get is 2542 on my G3D score. I searched the keywords "i5 hd 7770" in PerformaceTest and found a dozen people with G3D score above me ranging from 3400~4700.
4700 on a HD7770?!? No fxxking way!
I took a closer look at the spec of those dozen people, one of them (Baseline ID#17419) has in his description "AMD7870 GHz Ed", and yet under his video card category it still says 'Radeon HD 7770". WTF!?!
Feeling suspicious, I searched "hd 7870" in PerformaceTest again, and just as I suspected, a number of people who clearly says they have HD7870 cards but somehow their video card spec was labled under HD7770.
This means the benchmark score published on PassMark's website is skewed BIG TIME!
FXXK FXXK FXXK FXXK FXXK !!!
NO MORE PASSMARK. I'LL PUT MY TRUST IN OTHER BENCHMARK SOFTWARE FROM NOW ON.
