Clearly, Microsoft Flight Simulator X requires a lot of graphics bandwidth to provide high-detail textures in the system memory. A decrease of PCI Express bandwidth has a tremendous impact on frame rates here.

The new PCMark Vantage is mostly unimpressed by the bandwidth changes. Obviously, this test is mostly GPU bound, working out of the local frame buffer.

The x1 mark is wrong in the diagram- it's the gap right after the key, not ON the key!
My nVidia GeForce 8800 GTS 512 is marketed as being PCIe 2.0. Why is this not listed?
Typo on the last page referring to 9800GX2 as 9900.
My nVidia GeForce 8800GS 384MB is marketed as being PCIe 2.0. Why is this not listed?
This article is terribly misleading and does not test what it promises. It's only purpose is to test PCIe 2.0 x16 against PCIe 2.0 x8, x4 and x1.
Woulda been nice if they actually tested PCIe 2.0 (x16) against PCIe 1.1 since this would actually be of some relevance and importance to us. Anyone else think so?
