Testing:
Benchmark: F.E.A.R.
F.E.A.R. is also a first person shooter, and it has its own benchmark built into the game.
Settings:
- FSAA: x4
- Anisotropic: x16
- Effects: Max
- Computer: High
- Soft Shadow: Off
With the newest patch, you can finally run F.E.A.R. at 1280x1024. For a long time I have seen other reviewers (including myself) use the 1280x1024 resolution as a benchmark, yet the only 1280 resolution in F.E.A.R. was 1280x960. F.E.A.R. has always seemed to hurt graphics boards.
