Quake 4 |
id Software, in conjunction with developer Raven, recently released the latest addition to the wildly popular Quake franchise, Quake 4. Quake 4 is based upon an updated and slightly modified version of the Doom 3 engine, and as such performance characteristics between the two titles are very similar. Like Doom 3, Quake 4 is also an OpenGL game that uses extremely high-detailed textures and a ton of dynamic lighting and shadows, but unlike Doom3, Quake 4 features some outdoor environments as well. We ran this these Quake 4 benchmarks using a custom demo with the game set to its "High-Quality" mode, at resolutions of 1,280 x 1,024 and 1,600 x 1,200 without anti-aliasing enabled and then again with 4X AA and 8X aniso enabled simultaneously. |
Our custom Quake 4 benchmark proved to be a challenge for the All-In-Wonder X1900. The card's smaller frame buffer, in conjunction with its lower core and memory clock speeds, translates to much lower performance than all of the other cards we tested here, regardless off resolution or whether or not additional pixel processing was enabled.
