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, and Citadel benchmarks, with AA/AF on and off.

Unreal Tournament 2003 Antalus at 1024x1068 is where the FX5900 enjoys it's most comfortable lead while frame rates remain somewhat similar at other resolutions. Only with AntiAliasing maxed out at 1600x1200 does she briefly fall behind.

Antalus nVidia Specific AntiAliasing

Similar to the results we saw with Code Creatures, the jump from Quincunx to 6XS proved to be toughest. This time around, the frame rates drops by more than half. This ends up painting us a different picture when it comes to gaming.
