Doom 3

Doom 3 was benchmarked using Timedemo 1.


Doom 3 is well known for running better on nVidia cards, and our tests proved just that. As soon as we cranked up the effects, the 6800 lead was minimal, with the X850 breathing right at it's back.

Half-Life 2

Very even scores at first, even the FX 5800 seems to pull off decent framerates. Turn up the details and you can say bye bye to playing HL2 on your FX 5800. Sapphire's X850 goes for the win, managing an extra 24 FPS over its nearest rival.

Far Cry

Far Cry was benchmarked using the Volcano timedemo.


Gainward's 6800 Ultra takes first place by a whopping 30 FPS over the X850, the X850 wins in the 1600x1200 category.
