Doom 3
Let's get right down to the gaming results now with Doom 3. We tested using a custom-recorded demo that should be fairly representative of most of the single-player gameplay in Doom 3. Doom 3 is running in High Quality mode here, which I acknowledge is cruel and unusual punishment for the IGPs.

The Radeon Xpress 200 keeps pace with the VIA K8T800 Pro when a discrete graphics card is handling the rendering. The Radeon IGP manages to outrun the Intel 915G, but the Radeon IGP had a rendering problem in the game, so the scores aren't entirely comparable. I'll talk more about that in a second.

Far Cry
Our Far Cry demo takes place on the Pier level, in one of those massive, open outdoor areas so common in this game. Vegetation is dense, and view distances can be very long.

Again, the Radeon Xpress 200 comes out just behind the K8T800 Pro. On the integrated graphics front, the Radeon IGP pulls out ahead of Intel's GMA 900. Both IGPs were able to render the game properly, at least, somewhat to my surprise.

Unreal Tournament 2004
Our UT2004 demo shows yours truly putting the smack down on some bots in an Onslaught game.

The basic pattern we established above continues in UT2004. The Radeon Xpress 200 IGP is actually fairly playable in this game, so long as you stick to 640x480 resolution.
