ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe - Page 14

Colin McRae 05

For all you racing fans out there, this test is for you and will represent the Racing game category in our benchmarks.

From the graphics point of view the first thing you'll notice in the game, is the excellent amount of detail on your racing car. High resolution textures on the car and lighting make it quite impressive. All the eye candy, such as the sun reflection in the virtual camera are still the same as the older CM versions but motion blur has been added when your car hits something hard which will happen most often if you're new to the racing simulation world.

To measure performance on the game, we used fraps to get the average fps of the whole 8th stage of UK which is actually the only stage you get to play on the demo.

Everything looks normal here, with the SLI enabled cards taking second place at all resolutions tested. However, users will not have any problem playing the game, even at the maximum resolution of 1600x1200.

Ditto. With 8x anisotropic filtering and 4x Anti-Aliasing, 1280x1024 seems to be the best resolution for playing this game.
