Benchmarks With The Winfast GeForce 2 MX DH Pro

No video card review would be complete without a slew of Quake 3 numbers, time to see where the Leadtek DH Pro stands.  First up is Quake 3's "Fastest" setting...it's not the prettiest because it only uses 16-Bit color and 16-Bit textures, but we have to start somewhere right?

The Abit card didn't over-clock as high as the Leadtek DH Pro but it held it's own while over-clocked.  Both of the cards performed within a few points of each other.

The Leadtek GeForce 2 MX DH Pro stayed above the "magic" 60 FPS all the way up to 1024x768.  We were glad to see that!

The Leadtek GeForce 2 MX DH Pro is great all-around product, offering a slew of features and the kind of performance associated with products that usually carry a much higher price. At less than $150(US) you'll be hard pressed to find another card as well rounded as the DH Pro.  We would recommend the Leadtek GeForce 2 MX DH Pro to anyone interested.  The only thing keeping us from giving the DH Pro a score of "10" is because it doesn't perform at the same level of it's "older brothers" based on the GeForce 2 GTS.  We give the Leadtek GeForce 2 MX DH Pro a HotHardware Heat meter rating of...
