SFF PC Benchmarks: Doom 3, FEAR

ID Software Doom 3 1.3 Source: id Software

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.

The Shuttle XPC SG33G50 performs the fastest compared to systems when using integrated video but it's not quite enough to allow you to play games.

Sierra FEAR 1.08

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.

Well there you have it, the Shuttle XPC SG33G50 with its stock videocard isn't fast enough to run modern games. Perhaps Shutle will reposition its PCI Express x16 slot so higher powered videocards can be installed.
