EVGA GeForce GTX 285 1GB SSC Edition Review

Fallout 3


For these Fallout 3 benchmarks we decided to use one of the more graphically intensive portions of the game: a gameplay session which starts at the exit from Vault 101, through Springvale, over a small hill towards Washington and then back towards Megaton. Within this session two ants were fought near Springvale. All in all, the gameplay time is about 6 minutes.

1680 x 1050





1920 x 1200





2560 x 1600





It seems that the EVGA GTX 285 SSC is able to compete punch for punch with the powerful HD 4870 X2 in Fallout 3 until the 2GB of memory on ATI’s supercard is able to take the win at higher resolutions. One way or another, to see a single GPU card running so well against the X2 is impressive to say the least.
