BFG 8800GT OCX & 9600GT OCX Video Card Review
by Michael "SKYMTL" Hoenig     |     July 8, 2008

Unreal Tournament III


With absolutely stunning graphics, this popular online FPS provides great visuals to go hand-in-hand with palm-sweating gameplay.

For these tests we set up a 15 minute Bot Match on the Serenity level and let it play though. All of the results were recorded with the in-game benchmark tool.


Once again the 8800GT OCX surprised us quite a bit with its scores since it was once again right up there with the 9800GTX. The 9600GT OCX on the other hand performed well but couldn’t surpass the cheaper stock 8800GT.


Prey


Even though Prey may be a bit older game compared against many of the other ones we are testing, it still provides a workout of even the best graphics cards on the market. This time we have enabled its Graphics Boost feature (Gboost in the charts) and run through a custom timedemo.


Here we see both OCX cards punching pretty far above their weight class with very, very good increases over their stock-clocked counterparts.
