Benchmarks / Comparisons With Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory

Q3 Engine Based Freebie

Wolfenstein: ET

We also ran through a batch of timedemos with the OpenGL game Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory. Wolfenstein: ET is a free, standalone multiplayer game that is based on the excellent Return to Castle Wolfenstein, that was released a few years back. It uses a heavily modified version of the Quake 3 engine, which makes it a very easy to use benchmarking tool. We created our own custom demo and used the built-in timedemo feature to check each card's frame-rate. The tests below were run at 1024x768 and again at 1600x1200, without anti-aliasing, with 4X AA, with 4X AA and 8X aniso and lastly with 4X AA and 16X anisotropic filtering enabled concurrently.

Wolfenstein posed little threat to any of these cards, each of which was able to average around 70 fps or better at 1024x768. Also similar was the way the GeForce cards managed to take the lead over the X800 Pro in most scenarios. The only time that we saw a GeForce card slip behind the X800 Pro was the 5950 Ultra at 4xAA and 8X Aniso. And sure enough, at 1600x1200 we had a complete turnaround of sorts, Here, the 6800GT and 6800 led in the first test, but just as quickly fell behind the X800 Pro in any test that had AA or Aniso applied.
