Benchmarks

As
expected, the GeForce2 Ultra is faster in the
Fastest setting of Quake III. Quake III Fastest
runs at 16-bit and really toned down settings
so the memory bandwidth isn't much stressed. The
GeForce2 Ultra running at a higher core clock
speed is able to get faster framerates. The situation
changes when it's now at High Quality, 32-bit.
The GeForce2 Ultra gets a bigger performance hit
when raising the resolutions to the point where
the GeForce3 leaves it behind by a good margin.
The new memory architecture of the GeForce3 is
able to show its good effects here, even if Quake
III is already an old game.
Same
as Quake III Higy Quality, the GeForce2 Ultra
easily slows down while the GeForce3 barely gets
a performance hit from 640X480 up to 1024X768.
The GeForce2 Ultra alreadydips below 100fps in
1280X1024 while the GeForce3 still maintains a
very good 119.6fps.
