Win XP Results - Company of Heroes & Unreal Tournament 3

Company of Heroes, the first real game we tested helped to validate the GTX 280, as it managed to beat both the dual-GPU cards. The difference however was quite modest at around 5 - 7% between the GTX 280 and the GeForce 9800 GX2. Between the GeForce 9800 GTX and the GTX 280, there was a significant margin of up to 34%.

Unreal Tournament 3 was not as convincing for the new arrival, as the GeForce 9800 GX2 continued to argue its case, especially at the highest resolution tested of 1920 x 1440. Again, looking at the GeForce GTX 280 and the GeForce 9800 GTX, the second generation card did have a massive 50% lead at 1920 x 1440.
