3DMark05's overall score does not increase much due to
memory overclocking, but the CPU portion of the test gets a decent performance
boost.
Doom 3
takes advantage of the latest videocard technology and pushes the processing
power of the CPU to its absolute limit. At its highest setting, Ultra quality,
texture sizes pass the 500MB mark which means even tomorrow's videocards will
have a hard time running everything. The frame rates in the game itself are
locked at 60 fps so anything above that point is wasted. Each test is run three
times with the third run being recorded.

Doom 3 gets a nice performance jump due to overclocking
just the memory. In reality you wouldn't just
overclock the memory but everything else in your system - so keep that in mind
as you look through these results.
Quake 4
is the latest shooter from ID and is based on the Doom 3 engine. Tweaked to for
more eye candy, Quake 4 promises to be tougher on videocards and systems than
its predecessor was. Quake 4 also does not have a 60 fps limiter like Doom 3,
with the Ultra setting, graphic textures can surpass the 500MB mark! Each test
is run three times and with the third run being recorded.

Quake 4 results closely mirror that of Doom 3, you get a
small performance bump just from memory overclocking but you'll do much better
if you overclock the rest of your rig
too.
