been testing two cards today: a geforce256ddr and a radeon7500(from colorful/dataland). the 7500 clocks at 270/230 which is slightly below the official 290/230, but it shall not be much impact.
in most tests including 3dmark2000/01/03 and quake2/3 the 7500 performed well, much faster than the gf256 as expected. however when it came to doom3, the 7500 scored a whopping 2.5fps with lowest image quality! even at the main menu(a spinning mars) it lags a lot at 7-8fps.
the gf256ddr on the other hand, despite being a much older and slower card than the r7500, scored a decent 24fps in doom3 lowest image quality.
