Benchmarks: QIII Arena

Quake III Arena

Source: ID Software

Quake III Arena is a First Person Shooter (FPS) that revolutionized gaming as we know it. Using multiple light sources and having graphics textures that can fill videocards, even after 3 years it's still able to bring a cutting edge system to its knees.

The same trend appears that we've grown accustomed to. Ti4600 followed by the Radeon 8500's very close together. Let's turn up the resolution and see how the card copes with the added stress.

At 1600x1200 the scores are much closer and it's here that we start to see the benefit from overclocking the videocard.
