Next-Generation Game Performance with the Unreal Engine: 15-way GPU Shootout

Unreal Performance Test 2002 (Build 848) 1280 x 1024 x 32 (Performance in fps - Higher is better) ATI Radeon 8500 NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 500 NVIDIA GeForce3 NVIDIA GeForce3 Ti 200 NVIDIA GeForce2 Ultra ATI Radeon 7500 NVIDIA GeForce2 Ti 200 NVIDIA GeForce2 Pro ST Micro Kyro II ATI Radeon DDR NVIDIA GeForce DDR NVIDIA GeForce2 MX 400 NVIDIA GeForce 256 NVIDIA GeForce2 MX NVIDIA GeForce2 MX 200 34.2 34.1 29.0 25.3 18.9 18.6 16.8 16.0 15.6 13.9 10.4 8.5 7.9 7.7 3.8 | 0 | 7 | 14 | 21 | 27 | 34 | 4

Once again we have a virtual tie between the Radeon 8500 and the GeForce3 Ti 500. The rest of the results begin to suffer as 1280 x 1024 is entirely too stressful for the vast majority of these cards.

If we continue to use 30 fps as our cutoff mark, 1280 x 1024 isn't a playable resolution for anything slower than a GeForce3 Ti 500 or Radeon 8500 in this test.
