Real-time
editing, bump mapping, static lights, network system, integrated physics system,
shaders, shadows, and a dynamic music system are just some of the state
of-the-art features that the CryENGINE offers. The game was set to Ultra quality
and the Ubisoft's Regulator and Training demos were run.
It is rather surprising to see how much
performance drops when AA is enabled... ATi is usually very efficient when
turning on the eye candy.
Doom 3
takes advantage of the latest videocard technology and pushes the processing
power of the CPU to its absolute limits. At its highest setting, Ultra quality,
texture sizes pass the 500MB mark which means even tomorrow's videocards will
have a hard time running everything. The frame rates in the game itself are
locked at 60 fps so anything above that
point is wasted. Each test is run three times and with the third run being
recorded.
Doom 3 framerates are not very impressive
from this flagship videocard.
