F1 Challenge '99-'02 Performance


Anisotropic filtering really helps in this game because since you are at such a steep angle to the ground it makes it look a lot more crisp. Smoke and dust from other cars are fairly realistic, and the texures of the scenery look better than average for a racing game. This game may not be DX 9, but the smoke and dust (blending) do have an impact on performance.




60% faster without AA (67% with 4xAA/8xAF) than NV38 in F1 Challenge is definitely not shabby. This kind of performance gain is more like it, and we are seeing nearly 2x the performance of the venerable 9700 Pro.

    looks awesome congrats to nvidia on raising the bar!

    personally i don't game very much, and the only reason my Geforce2 was replaced was for the dual-heads of the Radeon 9000

    but as an enthusiast, any leaps make me excited :p

    can't want to see ATIs new cards

    Not as impressive as other sites made it look in many circumstances.
    But still quite boost in performance.

    Damn, two independant cable lines and a 480W PSU. Good thing it kills in performance, but still too pricey for me. Bring on the 6800XT for us broke people :P.

    Impressive green one.

    Hope it doesnt cost $500.
