A default-clocked GeForce 7800 GTX is around 8% faster than XFX's souped-up 'GT, which keeps a slender lead over SAPPHIRE's RADEON X1800 XL.
Changing the quality settings to now-higher 4x antialiasing and 16x anisotropic filtering, we see the ATI-based SAPPHIRE card take second place from the XFX 7800 GT. Note just how much faster both are than the high-end cards from the previous generation. Shows just what kind of performance improvements you can expect in games that are shader-heavy in nature.
