3D Performance: 3DMark05
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

We again followed the same methodology described previously, but now running 3DMark05. This program measures 3D performance by simulating DirectX 9.0c games, i.e., using Shader 3.0. This programming model is used by the latest games and is supported by GeForce 6100 but not by Radeon Xpress 200 (RS482).

It isn’t fair to use this program to evaluate 3D performance of motherboards with on-board video, as they achieve a very low score on this program. We ran it anyway, basically to see the performance WinFast 6100K8MA-RS achieved using a real video card installed.

You can check the results of our benchmarking below. All the listed video cards were installed on WinFast WinFast 6100K8MA-RS from Foxconn.

GeForce 6200 TurboCache (64 MB, 64 bits)

262

-165.27%

As you can see, GeForce 6100 achieved a performance similar to its main competitor, Radeon Xpress 200 (RS482).

Geforce 6100 from WinFast 6100K8MA-RS was, as expected, beaten by GeForce 6600 GT and GeForce 6200 but, like what happened previously, it was 165.27% faster than GeForce 6200 TurboCache (64 MB, 64-bit) from XFX.

When we installed a GeForce 6600 GT WinFast 6100K8MA-RS achieved the same performance of Foxconn WinFast NF4UK8AA-8EKRS, which is, as we mentioned earlier, a mainstream motherboard based on nForce 4 Ultra chipset.
