Comanche 4
* 64 MB version simulated with a 128 MB card. Results published with reservations.
The newest game in our benchmarks suite, Comanche 4, proves to be very CPU dependent. Results for all boards are on a comparable level. Once the game runs at high resolution, however, we see the group draw apart according to their performance, and the differences between the boards become apparent. Despite large theoretical performance differences, the GeForce4 Ti cards still form a very close group.
There seems to be another bug in ATi's Radeon 8500 driver. For some reason, the 64 MB card's performance drops noticeably at 1600x1200. The slower 128 MB version suddenly seems to be at an advantage in other resolutions as well, a phenomenon that seems to be limited to this game.
