Unreal Tournament 3 Performance Revealed

Posted by Zonk on from the winning-the-tourney dept.

Vigile writes "The Unreal Tournament 3 demo will be dropping sometime in the next two weeks. With a launch on the PC, PS3, Xbox 360 and even an in-box Linux client it will definitely be one of the most widely-played titles this holiday. With an early take on the UT3 demo's performance, PC Perspective has put up an article that compares cards from NVIDIA and AMD in both single and dual-GPU configurations to see which are the best performers. It turns out that even mid-range cards are going to be more than capable of playing UT3 at impressive image quality levels."

    It turns out that even mid-range cards are going to be more than capable of playing UT3 at impressive image quality levels. Yeah, sure, midrange cards with a $1,000 CPU.

    Seriously. How about some benchmarks with a mid/low range CPU?

    I think I can safely assume that if bits of the demo dropped to 20FPS with a Intel Core 2 Duo Extreme X6800, 4 Gigs of RAM and an Nvidia 8800GTS, there's really no point in even trying on a midrange machine.

    Why can't I find the button to digg this article down?
