PowerColor X1600 XT Bravo PCI Express Videocard Review
PowerColor X1600 XT Bravo PCI Express Videocard Review - PCSTATS

Benchmarks: FEAR

FEAR

Source: Sierra

FEAR is Sierra's latest first person shooter which relies heavily on DirectX 9 features. With its "Soft Shadows" feature enabled, even the fastest videocards run at a crawl, FEAR is definitely the new benchmark for future FPS games to follow.
