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.

Don't be alarmed that running SLI lowers overall
framerates. At this resolution/setting, the system is mainly CPU limited anyway.
The Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus comes in first here with 265.31 fps when running with
a single videocard.
Doom 3
takes advantage of the latest videocard technology and pushes the processing
power of the CPU to its absolute limit. 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 with the third run being recorded.

Doom 3 results again put the Asus P5N32-E SLI Plus near
the top of this reference list. The motherboard will definitely not hold your
system back when you're gaming, that much is for sure.
