The results from the first part of Afterimage generally falls in line with the results we got from F.E.A.R Performance Test. Generally, because as we can all see, minimum frame rates with AA and AF are much lower than what we're seeing with F.E.A.R Performance Test. From the results, even the fastest card, the GeForce 7950GT, is not enough to push frame rate above 30 fps all the time in F.E.A.R with AA and AF enabled. To do that, looks like you'll need at least a GeForce 7900GTX or equivalent performing card. The trend we saw earlier persists - the GeForce 7900GS is slightly slower than the standard, reference clocked GeForce 7900GT while the GeForce 7950GT is slightly faster than a higher clocked GeForce 7900GT.

In graphics limited situations, the GeForce 7900GS is about 10 percent slower overall than the standard GeForce 7900GT. Not that it mattered, since minimum fps on both card are practically the same give or take some variations between runs (variations between runs are generally higher with gameplay testing sessions than in F.E.A.R Performance Test). The GeForce 7950GT fared slightly better in this regard - minimum frame rates can be significantly higher than the higher clocked GeForce 7900GT (around 10 fps at 1024 x 768). At 1280 x 960, the difference is smaller and it became practically non existent at 1600 x 1200 or when AA and AF is enabled.
