ASUS EAX1600XT Silent
9. Ground Control II
Ground Control 2 is an action-oriented game of tactics and warfare. As Captain Jacob Angelus of the Northern Star Alliance, you will command squads of infantry, artillery, and air power against the might of the Empire of Terra. Base building and resource-collecting are replaced with unit control and combat tactics where your knowledge of the battlefield maneuvers will make the difference in your fight against a ruthless enemy. Position your troops on hilltops for better aim or inside buildings and forests for protection as you'll need to use every inch of terrain to your advantage.
For our benchmarks, we used the highest possible settings on the first mission of the single player game and moved around the camera to get an average frame rate using fraps.
Ground Control II offers really impressive graphics without requiring much GPU power.
Once again, the framerates produced by the EAX1600XT are more or less the same as the N6600GT.
With AA and AF enabled, the performance from the EAX1600XT is severely reduced and at 1600x1200, the game cannot run smoothly. Also, this time, the framerates for the EAX1600XT were two to five frames lower than the N6600GT.
