Gigabyte GA-8TRX330-L Motherboard Review - PCSTATS
The ATI RX330 doesn't boast any new innovations. In fact, on paper its feature set is identical to the ATI IGP 300 and 350 chipsets.

Benchmarks: AquaMark3, Comanche 4

AquaMark3 Source: Massive Development

AquaMark3 is a powerful tool to determine reliable information about the gaming performance of computer systems. Because the benchmark extensively utilizes DirectX9, DirectX8 and DirectX7 functionality, it represents the requirements of typical gaming applications in 2003 and 2004.

AquaMark3
1024x768 Processor Points Ranking
Albatron PX865PE Pro II (i865PE 200/400) 9430
Asus P4R800-V (RS300 200/400) 8347
Gigabyte GA-8TRS350MT (RS350 200/400) 8341
Gigabyte GA-8TRX330-L (RX330 200/400) 8415
1024x768 Overall Points Ranking
Albatron PX865PE Pro II (i865PE 200/400) 58249
Asus P4R800-V (RS300 200/400) 54443
Gigabyte GA-8TRS350MT (RS350 200/400) 54862
Gigabyte GA-8TRX330-L (RX330 200/400) 56411

AquaMark3 verifies everything we've seen so far. The Gigabyte GA-8TRX330-L is clearly superior to its older siblings, but not quite as fast as the Intel chipset.

Comanche 4 Source: Novalogic

The Comanche 4 benchmark demo is a unique test as it represents a real-world gaming experience. It contains the single player "Eagle's Talon" mission from the game as well as a detailed cinematic. This DirectX 8.1 benchmark demo will measure your system's performance in the standard frames per second format. The benchmark was run with audio disabled.

Comanche 4 - 640x480
Motherboards FPS Ranking
Albatron PX865PE Pro II (i865PE 200/400) 59.05
Asus P4R800-V (RS300 200/400) 56.44
Gigabyte GA-8TRS350MT (RS350 200/400) 57.81
Gigabyte GA-8TRX330-L (RX330 200/400) 58.16

The four motherboards stack up as we are coming to expect here, with the GA-8TRX330-L pulling a close second to the i865 solution.
