I apologise now, but the GeCube performance numbers, against the ASUS X800 PRO, aren't going to be too exciting, given that they're essentially the same boards, clocked pretty much identically. You can see that clearly in the 3DMark03 test.

The X800 PROs completely outpace the 9800 XT, giving the games player a big performance boost over the outgoing performance leader. While we're CPU limited initially, that quickly changes as the resolution and IQ enhancements are turned up and on, allowing the X800 PROs to show their true colours.
