Unreal Tournament 2003

We used the from [H]ard|OCP and selected the high quality batch run at all resolutions. We'll be presenting Antalus, Inferno, and Citadel benchmarks, with AA/AF on and off.

Antalus @ 1024, Max Detail

The 9600 Pro maintains it's lead over the FX5600 at 1024 resolution. The majority of online gamers play at lower resolutions to maintain a higher frame rate, and it performs great in these situations.

Antalus @ 1280, Max Detail

At 1280 the 9600 Pro is still leading, but as you may notice, the lead becomes more evident at higher AA and AF levels. Even at 8xAA, the 9600 Pro outmatches the 5600 Ultra with it's own 6XS setting.

I can't say much; the numbers speak for themselves. Again, without AA/AF, it's a toss-up, but at higher AA/AF settings the FIC A96P proves itself to be the stronger card.

Inferno @ 1024, Max Detail

This last set of UT2003 benchmarks lead us to conclude that at least for this game, the XFX 5600 Ultra is not up to FIC 9600 Pro when it comes to high AA/AF.
