ATI HD 4670 512MB GDDR3 Video Card Review | ||

| Prey / Enemy Territory: Quake Wars PreyEven 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.  It looks like in this game the HD 4670 is hot on the heals of the HD 3850 while providing some very solid performance numbers even at 1600 x 1200 resolution. Meanwhile, the 9500 GT shows that its 512MB memory is worth something when compared with a 256MB 8600 GTS. Enemy Territory: Quake WarsEnemy Territory: Quake wars is the latest iteration of the wildly popular Quake franchise from ID Software. While it was met with luke-warm reviews by both the media and the gaming community, it remains an extremely popular online game. In this test we set up a 15 minute timedemo on the Refinery level while the framerates were recorded in-game.   Like no other test up until this point the Quake Wars benchmark shows us the power of the HD 4670 where it is in the lead without AA turned on and then surges far out front when we bump up the IQ settings. It really is amazing to see a $85 card hitting nearly 60FPS with 4X AA at 1600 x 1200 resolution. Impressive.         | ||
