CPU Level, Pure Mode

In this demo we recorded a battle with monsters’ squad in the northern room of the marsian base. In this demo we noted massive amount of shadows along with pretty complex geometry.

Again, the whole GeForce 6800 family produces stronger results compared to ATI’s RADEON X800 lineup because of faster Z-calculations as well as more efficient OpenGL drivers along with certain optimizations implemented by NVIDIA and game developers.

While the new CATALYST 4.9 beta drivers gave some speed benefits to ATI’s RADEON X800 hardware, it still does not outperform NVIDIA’s hardware.
