Hmm, I guess. I'd venture to say a X800XL or a 6800GT (GS if PCIe) is just as fast as a 7600GT. Especially on the 6800GT, the 7600GT and 6800GT have the same exact feature set, except double the MADD performance in the pixel pipeline of the 7600GT, which doesnt matter the card is still to slow to do anything with it.
The problem with these type of things is that they simply analyze generation and compare a bit of logical knowledge of what model it is.
Perfect example is what if you have a Pentium D 805, which is just a dual core at 2.66Ghz, rather slow really. Well, lets say you OC'd it to 3.5Ghz, you've then got a decent performance boost, enough to make a difference in some games.
This program would have no clue how to really anyalze that. It'd have no clue how to think about how a 6800GS with lets say 4 more pixel pipelines unlocked would perform.
So really its rather limited, its good for the people who buy Dell's and have no real clue, and that's why such testing will be included with Vista, but it falls flat on its face beyond any analyzation with depth. It also probably has no clue that an A64 2800+ performs better in games than a P4 2.8Ghz, but it'll still rank them the same.
