ATi's X800 Pulls Off Another Coup in the Graphics Performance War
Nascar Thunder 2004
In Nascar Thunder 2004, we used a replay that shows a complete lap from the cockpit view with all video settings set to maximum. Since the game is also very CPU-intensive in addition to putting a strain on the graphics chip, we limited our test to the results from the tests with 4x FSAA and 8x anisotropic filtering.
