Benchmark Results: Fallout 3
by
Tino Kreiss
This game is a mix between a role playing game and a 3D shooter that is based on an improved Oblivion graphics engine. Fallout 3 supports HDR rendering using Shader Model 3.0. The graphics engine renders outdoor levels very smoothly. Indoor areas with their short view distances pose no problem for current graphics chips, anyway.
Graphics quality was set to Very High for our high-end tests, which is the game's highest setting. The maximum anti-aliasing level we used was 8x. The benchmark consisted of a sequence near Tenpenny tower, with FRAPS logging the frame rate. This outdoors scene has a large view distance, with many objects and ruins found in the landscape.

I'm struggling to figure out why people keep using The Last Remnant as a benchmark considering how skewed its results are in favour of nVidia cards. Apart from that, good guide.
Nvidia bias as usual from THG.
An HIS 5770 is available in Australia for under $A200, Powercolor even cheaper. Fantastic value, particularly with the scope for overclocking. I'll be in India for the next two months, interesting to check Mumbai prices.
Nice guide.I'm happy how you tested it with the tom clancy's games,and fallout 3,but,to make it better Crysis & Crysis warhead should be in the list,those games need a powerfull engine
Nice anyway.
im also suprised the only 5000 series here is the 5770. ODD isnt it
The 5870 and 5970 came out on the open market like what 3 months ago. It is odd that these guys cant acknowledge there EXISTENCE. I do believe they are biased in there benchmarks. I mean if u can show Nvideas 2gig card why on earth wouldnt u show ATI`s 2gig card. Or even the 1gig. Not very honest on there part i am ashamed to say.
i am waiting to take order of one of these cards cant wait.....had to upgrade the psu to a 700w(mainly becaue it was cheeper then a 500w) going to put it all in 2morro night will let you know how it handles
p.s good review
