Half-Life 2: Lost Coast

It’s only in some separate cases that we see an advantage of the new ATI chipset in Half-Life 2: Lost Coast : in 1600x1200 resolution of the “eye candy” mode and at 14x Super AA. Featuring HDR and sophisticated pixel shaders, this tech demo is very resource-consuming. Turning on Super AA makes the performance drop down to below comfortable level.

Project Snowblind

We again see the CrossFire Xpress 3200 falling back a little in the simplest test mode. It may be the result of our using the FRAPS utility here. There’s unavoidable inaccuracy in this method. In the rest of the test modes the two ATI platforms have the same speed which is never lower than 50fps even with enabled 14x Super AA.
