ShaderMark 2.1 is a new benchmark in our suite and while the X850 XT and GeForce 6800 GT seem pretty evenly matched, the Albatron GeForce 7800 GTX blows both away. We see almost double the performance at stock speeds! In ShaderMark, SLI does not have an effect, even after creating a custom profile. Perhaps newer drives will properly enable SLI for this benchmark, but right now they don't. Still, the Albatron GeForce 7800 GTX shows off almost twice the shader power of previous generation videocards!
