Inno3D GeForce 7600 GST

Performance

The Inno3D card is a cross of items here.  Since it is aspiring to be a midrange card, we choose to compare it as such.  Selecting a HIS Radeon X1800 GTO and a generation old Inno3D GeForce 6600 GT we ran the three cards through a battery of real world game play benchmarks.

Testing was done with frame rates during actual gameplay being recorded by the FRAPS program and graphed in a three minute segment of play from Battlefield 2, Need For Speed: Most Wanted, Half Life 2 and Quake 4.  Within each game, we have saved spots where we can record gameplay from a set location, making the course of action easier to duplicate between test products.  Specific settings will differ somewhat between each game but all will be at a screen resolution of 1024 x 768. 

Test Bed

Results

Battlefield 2 is not a new game but remains fresh with the expansion and add on packs EA Games continues to release.  Using the Zetar Wetlands map, we recorded a three minute segment of a play with all settings set to ‘high’ at 4x FSAA with a screen resolution of 1024 x 768.  I don't know what it was I was expecting but this wasn't it.  It was like an underdog boxer taking command of a fight or a 50:1 shot horse in a race, moving ahead.  Inno3D's overclocked GS core and GT memory based card can CERTAINLY hold its own.  In this case, it is against a card representing the high side of the midrange class.  Wow!
