Quake III
Arena is a First Person Shooter (FPS) that revolutionized gaming as we know it.
Using multiple light sources and having graphics textures that can fill
videocards, even after 3 years it's still able to bring a cutting edge system to
its knees.

At 1024x768
we're not completely GPU limited yet and we can see that overclocking brings a
huge performance boost!
