Benchmarks

The difference between the default-clocked Ti 4200's from the "enhanced" Gainward Ti 4200 isn't that large until the resolution is upped to 1280X1024. Notice that the 64MB Ti 4200 manages to keep up with the enhanced Ti 4200 due to it running close to the clock speeds. As expected, the performance of the maximum-overclocked Ti 4200 is very good, outpacing the nearest card by around 14fps at 1280X1024.

Serious Sam 2's Cooperative demo is one of the low-fps demos around and while the scores may look low, the game runs very smooth on all Ti 4200's. A small difference in the frames per second does have a pretty noticeable effect in the whole demo.

Commanche4 is a helicopter-based flight-sim and the game itself seems to be limiting the performance of all cards. The overclocked card performs around the same level as everyone else even across all resolutions.
