The GeForce 7800GS Shows AGP Ain't Dead Yet
Doom 3
We use the Doom 3 default time demo, "demo1," for each of our tests. We run the game at the high-quality setting for the first run with antialiasing (AA) disabled. Anisotropic filtering is set to 8x when the High Quality mode is enabled in Doom 3. Therefore, our first run is No AA and 8x AF. During our second set of tests we enable 4x AA.
Newer uses for the Doom 3 engine include Quake 4, which produces similar results to those of Doom 3. The hardware driver is set to Application controlled for AA and AF, Vertical Sync is disabled and the mipmap detail option is set to Quality.
