FEAR	Source: Sierra

FEAR is Sierra's latest first person shooter which relies heavily on DirectX 9 features. With its "Soft Shadows" feature enabled, even the fastest videocards run at a crawl, FEAR is definitely the new benchmark for future FPS games to follow.

FEAR is a really intensive video game regardless of the videocard. For obvious reasons the Asus EN7900GT TOP does pretty in these tests. The videocards with 512MB of memory perform the absolute best in FEAR, and that includes the MSI NX7800GTX-VT2D512E and Asus EAX1900XTX/2DHTV/512M/A models.
