Benchmarks: Quake III Arena, UT2003

Quake III Arena

Source: ID Software

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..

4. AK77-600 Max - 210/420 104.7

The AK77-600 Max is quite somewhat slower than the Epox 8RGA+ in QIII Arena.

Unreal Tournament 2003

Source: Epic

Unreal Tournament 2003 is the sequel to 1999's multiple 'Game of the Year' award winner. It uses the very latest Unreal Engine technology - where graphics, sound and game play are taken beyond the bleeding edge. Unreal Tournament 2003 employs the use of Vertex as well as Pixel Shaders and it's recommended that you use a DirectX 8 videocard to get the most out of the game.

As we saw with in 3DMark2001 and in Quake III, here in UT2003 we find that the KT600 motherboards trail the nForce2 based Epox 8RGA+ by about 6-7 FPS in botmatch, and 20 FPS or so in the Flyby test.
