What is the difference between the Quake 3 nv15demo and the demo001 in the cpu tests? I can't find a page where this is covered. If you can give me that site that'd be great.

Thanks

The Basic difference is the level for the NV15demo contains LOADS more polygons, so is a lot more taxing on the system because it has more to do. It's a more intensive system workout basically, and will be quite slow on a mid to low-end system.

I think the standard quake test is memory bandwidth sensitive, whereas the nv15 is cpu limited.

Where did you guys find this info?

Thanks for the answers.

I guess it would be..
More Polygons=more Calculations .: more work for the CPU.

Can't remember exactly where I saw this information, but I'm pretty sure it was on tomshardware somewhere.
