DOOM 3

In DOOM3, we take a look at the performance of this card in VISTA. We ran the card in its various resolutions at its default settings and changing the resolution within DOOM3. (demo1 ran 3 times).

Below are the results of the card with default factory settings (594/1540) vs NV settings (450/800) and o/c settings (660/1540) at various resolutions.

As we can see from the chart, at high resolution (1600x1200) the difference of this card versus NV def. timings are way higher. It shows that the 8500GT core is very overclockable, from 450 to 660MHz.
