Benchmarks III

UT2003

UT2003 and the Asus P4G8X seem very well suited with performance well ahead of the DFI motherboard. The most striking improvements were seen in the ‘BotMatch’ benchmark which is the closest to playing the game. Both boards play UT2003 very well indeed even at 1600x1200 with all the details set to their highest quality. Clearly the memory bandwidth does make a difference in real applications.

Serious Sam 2

Serious Sam 2 was tested using the ‘Valley of the Jaguar’ demo which at 1024x768 is hard work for any machine. The P4G8X proved up to the challenge with some very respectable scores. More importantly the game was extremely playable showing no signs of juddering.

Quake III

Here we see some good high frame rates as you would expect even at 1024x768. The test was carried out using the standard demo001 from the Quake III install disk. Bucking the general trend the DFI board showed that it will not yield to the P4G8X lightly. Why it’s better in Quake when it is worse everywhere else I do not know, but the benchmark was run twice with basically the same results.
