[Review] Zotac GeForce 8400GS 256MB aka. G98
Final thought
After our review on Zotac G98-8400GS, we notice it is far more better than the engineering sample we reviewed earlier. In some aspect this review make our ES review quite meaningless.
The card have a very good HD video playback ability, prove that the G98-8400GS is full of bugs. In H.264 and VC-1 decoding process the card keeps CPU utilization keeps within 5%, better than HD 2400 pro and HD 3450.
G98 only have 8SP, but a higher clock. In the test the performance is better than expected. In other words the card have a good HD video playback ability and standard 3D performance.
The Good:
integrated PureVideo HD Gen 3 engine, have decent HD video play back ability.
low-profile, bundled several I/O metal bars that can be change to fit the PC case.
Power module better than NVIDIA’s reference version.
DVI, HDMI, TV-out and VGA. Supports up to four different output solutions.
The Con:
Memory interface is wasted.
