Quake 3 Arena : Rizbench

Rizbench is a intensive deathmatch demo designed to put your computer through the absolute worst conditions possible. It utilizes multiple bots in a polygon-heavy arena with constant firing and carnage, and lasts for over two minutes in most cases. Here's the scores:

Rizbench: Normal

  16-bit 32-bit
640x480 52.3 51.1
800x600 49.1 46.5
1024x768 37.6 33.3
1280x1024 24.3 21.0

Rizbench is quite intensive as you can see. For the first time, the Viper II dips below 30fps in any test. Let's move on to Ulta High Quality.

Rizbench: Ultra High Quality

  16-bit 32-bit
640x480 --- 42.7
800x600 --- 40.5
1024x768 --- 32.0
1280x1024 ---

20.5

800x600x32 looks like the current sweet spot. This should improve with drivers, though, as the 500Mtexel rate should do 1024x768 just fine. Unreal Tournament, anyone?
