3DMarks

We compared the GT 220 with the reference Geforce 9500 GT card (512MB of GDDR3) and with one of the fastest Geforce 9500 GT cards - Galaxy 9500 GT OC (512MB of GDDR3). Of course, we included a couple of faster but not much pricier cards in our testing.

Gainward GT 220 runs up to 50% better than the reference 9500GT. Of course, the 1GB frame buffer contributed greatly to the result.
