UT2003
This game is the newest of the test games used today. It has some of the most intensive graphics currently available, and is a fun game to play against others with its multiplayer design. This is the most intensive test we have, so how does the AiW 9000 Pro perform?

In this test we again see the graphical power of the GeForce 4 Ti series, which takes top spot with no competitors within 30fps. Moving to the ATi cards we see that only one card is capable of pushing the frame rate over 60fps on average, the AiW 9000 when overclocked. At stock speeds the AiW 9000 is so slightly slower than the 8500LE that it really is the same frame rate. The frame rate graphs of the AiW 9000 and the 8500LE are very different, with the AiW 9000 has a smoother graph with a fair amount of variations in frame rate. The 8500LE however only has three high frame rate spikes while the rest of the time there is a very flat graph. Overclocking the AiW 9000 provides a 9.6% frame-rate increase which puts it over the 60fps average frame rate. The MX 440 has a fairly flat graph that has more in common with the 8500LE, than the AiW 9000, with few spikes in frame rate, but otherwise is a very flat frame rate graph.

Unfortunately the ATi cards were not able to run the UT2003 test at 1024*768 with any AA enabled, so that test was omitted. Apart from the GF4 Ti card, the other cards are not playable. Looking at how the AiW 9000 does we see that it out does the MX 440 by 4fps at stock speeds and 6fps when overclocked (20-28% increase). Compared to the 8500LE the AiW cannot keep up at stock speeds, but when overclocked it 'beats' the 8500LE by just over 1fps or 5%. We can see that in Direct X games the AiW performs better than its competitor the GeForce 4MX 440-8X.
