Benchmarks: Comanche 4, X2: The Threat

Comanche 4 Source: Novalogic

The Comanche 4 benchmark demo is a unique test as it represents a real-world gaming experience. It contains the single player "Eagle's Talon" mission from the game as well as a detailed cinematic. This DirectX 8.1 benchmark demo will measure your system's performance in the standard frames per second format. The benchmark was run with audio disabled.

Comanche 4 numbers are very close all around. Older games play just fine on the Asus A8N-VM CSM motherboard with the onboard graphics.

X2: The Threat Source: Egosoft

A completely rewritten 3D engine based on DirectX8 encompasses many visual effects such as volumetric Nebulae (gas clouds) that have a real impact in the game (you can hide in them) and many new engine, shield, weapon and explosion effects. Objects cast real dynamic 3D shadows! Dynamic DP3 bump mapping allows a previously unseen level of detail.

X2 The Threat

MSI RS480M2-IL (RS480 200/400 7800GTX) 186.798

Gigabyte GA-K8N51PVMT-9 (GF6150 200/400 GeForce 780GTX) 187.625

Asus A8N-VM CSM (GeForce 6150 200/400 GeForce 7800GTX) 200.867

3D performance with the onboard GeForce 6150 in X2: The Threat is very poor, and about half of what the other GeForce 6150 videocards get. The test was ran a few times with the same results.
