Q3, CoD, UT2003





Our UT2003 system test revolves around a bot match hosted at the Suntemple. On high-end cards it's pretty much system bound. Good performance all round here.



Quake III just favours VIA's reference board. Again, it bears repeating that there's nothing in it.



Call of Duty reinforces the view that VIA's K8T800 Pro doesn't do much for performance. A beefy 1GHz HyperTransport is currently wasted in a single-processor setup.
