3D Performance: Quake 4

Quake 4 is very heavy game that uses the same engine of Doom 3. We used the id_demo001 available on version 1.3 of Quake 4 to make our benchmarking with this game. We ran this demo four times at 1024x768x32 resolution and image quality settings on “low”. The results shown on the chart is an arithmetic average of the collected data. The results are in frames per second. For more information on how to use Quake 4 to benchmark a PC, read our tutorial on this subject.

SiS 672FX

Here the on-board video produced by ECS G33T-M2 was 365% faster than the one produced by SiS 672FX. Here the “worst” video card available on the market, GeForce 6200 TurboCache with 64-bit memory interface and 64 MB, was 600% faster than the on-board video produced by SiS 672FX.
 
When we installed our overclocked GeForce 8800 GTS on the reviewed board it didn’t achieve the same performance level of MSI P35 Platinum: this board from MSI was 35.66% faster. This means that by installing a “real” video card on this motherboard it WON’T achieve the same performance level of a high-end or even a mainstream motherboard without on-board video.
