Page 6 - Benchmark: Quake 4

Benchmark notes: Texture quality was not turned to maximum because of the limitations of graphics memory in our tests. Other than that, everything else was switched to the highest possible setting allowed by the game.

The 7600GT resulted in a 30 FPS average with no AA, while PowerColor's X1550 managed a 12 FPS to begin with.

At 4xAA, both card's FPS dropped to be about a third as to no AA usage as described in the previous benchmark.

Our PowerColor X1550 refuses to run this benchmark -- the game keeps erroring out/refusing to launch when we try to apply these settings.
