It looks
like Intel's 975X reclaims the performance crown decisively. Previously with the
955X, Intel chipsets shared the top spot with nVIDIA's nForce4 SLI Intel
Edition.
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 demo was run.

The Foxconn 975X7AA-8EKRS2H is very impressive in FarCry,
it's definitely a fast gaming motherboard!
Extensive
development has gone into the X³ engine, making full use of DirectX 9
technology, to create dramatic visual effects and stunningly realistic
starships. Coupled with the massively enhanced A.L. (Artificial Life) system,
X³: REUNION will present players with an ever changing, evolving universe; where
a players actions really can shape the future of the universe.

Unreal
Tournament 2004 is the sequel to the highly popular UT2003 and uses the very
latest Unreal Engine technology. Unreal Tournament 2004 employs the use of
Vertex and Pixel Shaders and it's recommended that you use a DirectX 9 videocard
if you plan to play competitively.
