3D Performance: 3DMark03

We followed the same methodology described on previous page, but now running 3DMark03. 3DMark03 simulates DirectX 9.0 (i.e. Shader 2.0) games, which is fully supported by all three chipsets with integrated graphics we added to our comparison: Radeon Xpress 1100, GeForce 6100-405 and AMD 690G.

You can check the results of our benchmarking below. All the listed video cards were installed on ASUS M2A-VM.

On 3DMark03 AMD 690G was 4.73% faster than Radeon Xpress 1100 and 23.66% faster than GeForce 6100-405. It was also beaten by the two low-end PCI Express video cards we installed: GeForce 6200 TC (64 MB, 64-bit) was 61.54% faster and GeForce 6200 (128 MB, 128-bit) was 153.83% faster than the on-board video of the reviewed motherboard.

When we installed a GeForce 7800 GTX on the reviewed card it achieved the same performance of our ASUS M2N32-SLI De Luxe with the same video card installed.
