We have been using our Albatron GeForce 9600GT card for some time now. It was also basically a $100 card, so we thought it would be interesting to see how the two year old $100 card would compare against today's $100 card.

All tests were run using a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit. For our stock speed tests, we ran everything at default timings for the CPU. Our 4GB Patriot DDR3 kit was running at speeds of 1333MHz and 8-8-8-26 timings. We used the latest BIOS available at the time of testing, which was the H5M128A, dated 2/5/2010; we used the WHQL 196.21 NVIDIA drivers for our 9600GT video card and the Catalyst 10.2 drivers for our Gigabyte Radeon HD 5670.
