 Gainward Ultra 760 XP Golden review

 By: Hilbert Hagedoorn | Edited by  | Published: September 2, 2003  

   

Unreal 2003
The Unreal Tournament 2003 benchmark is much more modern than Quake III, this is not the Unreal 2003 performance test as used by some other websites, contrary to that, it's based on the demo.

Since the Unreal Tournament 2003 demo is finally out, and available for a free download. You can get it at just about any file download site (link). Be prepared to download 100MB of data though. 

One nice little addition to UT2003 demo is that it has a built-in benchmark utility.  You can find the benchmark in the system subdirectory for the game after it installs. 

The file is appropriately named 'benchmark.exe'.  Run this file, select the resolution you want to benchmark, and it will go through 4 different demos, 2 are "flyby" and 2 are "botmatch" demos.  The flyby demos give you an idea of how high frame rates would be without bots, while the botmatch demos give you an idea of what kind of fps you can expect while actually playing the game. The benchmark actually leverages more cpu and graphics intensive technologies that the engine is capable of.

We recorded our own time-demo and what you in numbers are looking at is the actual in-game performance of our own recorded timedemo.

Unreal 2003 800x600 1024x768 1280x1024 1600x1200
GeForce FX 5600 Ultra 85 68 51 41
Radeon 9600 Pro 89 76 57 43
Radeon 9700 Pro 96 91 78 63
GeForce FX 5900 Ultra 97 96 87 72
460/920 88 72 54 43

As stated in our pre-benchmark bit. Comparing this game towards the results of the Radeon series is a bit flakey as the Radeon is using a slightly different quality setting. Still the direct competition for the FX 5600 Ultra wins here.

Unreal 2003 800x600 1024x768 1280x960 1600x1200
Radeon 9600 Pro 55 41 30 17
GeForce FX 5600 Ultra 59 43 31 20
Radeon 9700 Pro 76 58 42 32
GeForce FX 5900 Ultra 81 64 47 36

When we enable 4x AA and 8x AF the results switch, although slightly, in favor of the Gainward GeForce FX 5600 Ultra.
