As you no doubt see, we're pretty much system limited in this benchmark. It's not until we hit 1600 x 1200 with AA and AF enabled we began to see a significant difference between default and AA / AF results. Since we're system limited, the graphics cards doesn't come in play and that means we won't see the differences we saw in Call of Duty. However, we do see a slightly faster results from the Gigabyte GeForce 7900GTX. The differences are small though, so in a sense, we now know the differences we saw in Call of Duty is mostly graphics card related. There's virtually no difference in results between the ASUS EN7900GTX and Leadtek PX7900GTX. Keep in mind the differences we're seeing from the Gigabyte GeForce 7900GTX are very small, so you really won't notice it at all in gameplay (around 10 fps or 5 percent). It would seem much of difference is spread out around the average fps.


This another system limited benchmark and again it's not until we hit 1600 x 1200 do we see a gap between default and AA / AF results. At 1024 x 768 and 1280 x 1024, we see a similar trend here to what we saw earlier with Homeworld 2. The Gigabyte GeForce 7900GTX slightly edges out the other GeForce 7900GTX. No doubt the difference we're seeing here is system related. Once we hit 1600 x 1200, the three cards are pretty much equal, though again the Gigabyte GeForce 7900GTX has a slight lead with default settings (9 fps or 6 percent). Unlike Homeworld 2, we see that the differences seems to occur both on the lower and higher fps as well. Minimum frame rates from the Gigabyte GeForce 7900GTX is pretty much constant at 110 fps until we hit 1600 x 1200 with AA and AF.
