F.E.A.R
One of the most highly anticipated titles of recent years was Monolith's paranormal thriller F.E.A.R. According to the game's minimum system requirements, it needs at least a 1.7GHz Pentium 4 with 512MB of system memory and a 64MB graphics card in the Radeon 9x00 or GeForce4 Ti-classes or better, to adequately run. Using the full retail release of the game patched to v1.08, we put the graphics cards in this article through their paces to see how they fared with a popular title. Here, all graphics settings within the game were set to their maximum values, but with soft shadows disabled (Soft shadows and anti-aliasing do not work together currently). Benchmark runs were then completed at resolutions of 1,280x1,024 through 2,560 x 1,600, with 4x anti-aliasing and 16x anisotropic filtering enabled.

The new GeForce 8800 Ultra, whether running in a single card configuration or in dual-card SLI mode is about 6% - 10% faster than the GEForce 8800 GTX is usurps at the top of the NVIDIA's current GPU line-up. The performance delta is more pronounced at the higher resolutions, where the Ultras faster GPU and increases memory bandwidth come into play.
