XFX 7950GT
4. F.E.A.R
The story begins as an unidentified paramilitary force infiltrates a multi-billion dollar aerospace compound. The government responds by sending in Special Forces, but loses contact as an eerie signal interrupts radio communications. When the interference subsides moments later, the team has been literally torn apart. As part of a classified strike team created to deal with threats no one else can handle, your mission is simple: Eliminate the intruders at any cost. Determine the origin of the signal. And contain this crisis before it spirals out of control.
The game offers up to 1280x960 resolution, which used for all tests. We maxed all details for CPU and for the VGA card, except Soft Shadows and AA/AF. Using Forceware 3D Control panel, we enabled AA/AF as indicated in each graph. Below are the results after using the built-in benchmark test:
At 1280x960 without any AA/AF, the 7950GT was faster by 17FPS (average) and didn't drop below 43 FPS.
Enabling AA and AF creates a performance drop with all VGA cards. The XFX 7950GT has an almost linear decrease in framerate, while with 16x AF and 8xS AA enabled, it managed 38FPS (average).
