Product: 3D Prophet All In Wonder 8500DV |
Open GL Benchmarks
| Table Of Contents |
| 1:
Introduction 2: Radeon 8500 Architecture 3: Accessories 4: Software 5: Direct 3D Benchmarks 6: OpenGL Benchmarks 7: Conclusion |
Now is a great classic: the Quake III Arena benchmark. Quake III is a famous OpenGL game that intensively uses the GPU as well as the CPU of the computer.
|
|
| In this first Quake III test, the Hercules 3D Prophet All In Wonder 8500 DV gives the slowest result but it remains totally acceptable. In 1024*768*16, the GeForce 3 Ti 500 is 15% faster than the Hercules 3D Prophet All In Wonder 8500 DV. In 1280*1024*32, the ATI Radeon 8500 128MB is 30% faster than the 3D Prophet All In Wonder 8500 DV, while the ATI Radeon 8500LE is 14% faster than the 3D Prophet. Of Course the GeForce 4 Ti 4600 leads the race. |
|
|
| When enabling the 2x full screen anti aliasing mode, we notice a big difference between the various graphics cards we have tested. The 3D Prophet All In Wonder 8500 DV gives the slowest results, while the GeForce 4 Ti 4600 remains the king of the hill.In 1024*768*16 the GeForce III Ti 500 is 80% faster than the All In Wonder 8500 DV. In 1280*1024*32, the ATI Radeon 8500 128MB is 30% faster than the 3D Prophet All In Wonder 8500 DV and 12% faster than the ATI Radeon 8500LE. |
|
|
| Just like in FSAA 2x, with FSAA 4x enabled, the Hercules 3D Prophet All In Wonder 8500 DV can't render scenes in high resolutions: 1280*1024*16 or 1280*1024*32. In 1024*768*32, the ATI Radeon 8500 LE is 20% faster than the Hercules 3D Prophet All In Wonder 8500 DV. Still in 1024*768*32, the Radeon 8500 128MB is 32% faster than the All In Wonder 8500 DV and 10% faster than the ATI Radeon 8500 LE. Obviously both NVIDIA GeForce III Ti 500 & GeForce 4 Ti 4600 graphics cards lead the race. |
