Call of Duty, RTCW:ET, Tiger Woods 2004

Call of Duty

Call of Duty is the first of a pair of OpenGL tests, using heavily modified versions of iD Software's Quake3 renderer.



25% more performance at the median setting than the Radeon 9600XT, the Gainward 5900XT is the easy winner here.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory

RTCW: ET is the second OpenGL/Quake3 test.



Driver problems for the Radeon 9600XT mean that its scores are largely worthless. The 5900XT is faster than 5700 Ultra

Tiger Woods 2004



There's not much between any of the GPUs on test in this NVIDIA The Way It's Meant To Be Played title from EA. 5700 Ultra is eventually quicker at the median setting.
