Benchmarks: AquaMark 3, Gun Metal 2

AquaMark 3 Source: Massive Development

AquaMark3 is a powerful tool to determine reliable information about the gaming performance of a computer system. Because the benchmark extensively utilizes DirectX9, DirectX8 and DirectX7 functionality, it represents the requirements of typical gaming applications in 2003 and 2004.

The MSI PCX5750-TD128 doesn't do too well in AquaMark3. I guess it shouldn't be a surprise, GeForce 5700 class cards have never really done well in this benchmark.

Gun Metal 2 Source: Yeti Studio

Gun Metal 2 is one of the first games that will be taking advantage of DirectX 9 technology. According to Gun Metal 2, 2x AA is enabled by default on all videocards and the listed framerates are average.

At stock speeds the MSI PCX5750-TD128 and Gigabyte X600XT PCI-Express cards are neck and neck in terms of performance. Overclocking gives the MSI card a very healthy boost!

If 1600x1200 is too much for cards like a Radeon 9800XT or GeForceFX 5950 Ultra, you bet it's too much for the mainstream MSI PCX5750-TD128 as well.
