Results - Splinter Cell 3: Chaos Theory & F.E.A.R (DirectX 9 Benchmarks)

Findings from Splinter Cell 3 weren't too far from what we encountered in the 3DMark suite, except that the ATI Radeon X1900 XT 512MB fared consistently more than 20% better, garnering more than 10 frames per second difference between itself and the GeForce 7950 GT. And it seems that even the GeForce 7900 GTX has troubles outpacing the Radeon X1900 XT. The Radeon X1900 GT, which NVIDIA fondly makes comparison at the moment, is actually on equal footing with the now outdated GeForce 7900 GT. We expect ATI to make an update to it soon, but it remains to be seen how it would fit in the performance rung with the ATI Radeon X1900 XT 256MB edition also in the lineup.

In the even more demanding F.E.A.R. game, the outcome is rather identical to that seen above. The Radeon X1900 XT 512MB once again distances itself with a greater than 20% performance differential. The Palit and NVIDIA GeForce 7900 GTX would have fared a little better had we updated their results with the latest drivers, but you can safely guess that it won't be a lot higher in any case.
