Performance in Semi-Synthetic Benchmarks

Aquamark 3

It is the vertex shader performance of the graphics card that largely determines its result in Aquamark 3 . The Chrome S27 manages to win somehow – thanks to the sheer frequency of its processors if not to their efficiency. It even leaves the RADEON X700 with 6 vertex processors behind in high resolutions. Super-sampling reminds of itself in the “eye candy” mode where the S3 card is not faster than the GeForce 6200.

Final Fantasy XI Official Benchmark 3

The high core frequency and, accordingly, the high scene fill rate help the S3 Chrome S27 deliver excellent performance in this semi-synthetic benchmark that displays game scenes from Final Fantasy XI .
