Much like the other benchmarks we've seen so far, Quake 4 is just too heavy a load for the GeForce 7600GT above 1024 x 768 with AA and AF enabled. Just look at the AA and AF results at 1280 x 1024 and 1600 x 1200. We're seeing frame rates drop to 25 and 26 fps with all these cards. Now, if you're a serious gamer whose very picky about stuttering and lag like us, you definitely want to run with the best possible frame rate or at least a compromise between frame rate and quality. Here, that means running without AA and AF regardless of what GeForce 7600GT you are using. Even a higher clocked card like the Leadtek PX7600GT Extreme can only do so much. The PX7600GT Extreme is undoubtedly faster, but the difference is not that significant. All the reference clocked GeForce 7600GT can still maintain a 45 fps minimum at 1600 x 1200.
