Page 3 of 12 We use one synthetic test, 3DMark06, and a series of games to test video cards. Note that we only test 3DMark06 for kicks, and the resulting scores don’t factor into our review whatsoever. We try to use our own timedemos whenever possible, but will use the in-game timedemo or record a few minutes of gameplay using FRAPS if that's not an option. The games are Half-Life 2: Episode One, F.E.A.R., Company of Heroes, Prey, and Need For Speed: Most Wanted. All benchmarking results are the average of at least three runs of each game at each different setting. We bench using Windows XP Service Pack 2, and the latest video card drivers (NVIDIA 158.22). The driver settings were left at default, and transparency-sampling anti-aliasing was left off.
