 XFX GeForce 8600 GT Fatal1ty Edition review

 By: Hilbert Hagedoorn Edited by  | Published: July 1, 2007  


 

Gaming: Battlefield 2 - EA

The award-winning Battlefield franchise invades the high tech frontlines of modern warfare in the new sequel, Battlefield 2™. The game brings the intensity and excitement of Battlefield 1942™ into the modern era with enhanced team play and the latest, most technologically advanced vehicles and weapons systems available to man.

I just love what this game can do in terms of gameplay and the image quality it brings us. We had to use FRAPS to measure the performance and by use of the game command prompt remove a nasty framerate cap. The results do not lie.

Call Of Juarez DX10 Benchmark

This game benchmark which is just so delicious to look at, is using Shader Model 4 with DirectX 10, so the usage of Vista is mandatory. There's a huge mud-fight going on between Techland and NVIDIA, AA related. And I personally gave NVIDIA the benefit of the doubt here as the explanation from Techland was plain silly. Due to this we decided to continue using this test yet in all circumstanced we disabled AA. This takes the sting out of the equation and makes the software reliable to benchmark once again.


 

 

What a drama this benchmark is with mid-range graphics cards ...  ridiculous. Let's move on shall we ? Since this test demands 100% DX10 compatibility, I obviously could not include other DX9 cards.

You can download the benchmark from our download section, located right here.
