Performance in Strategies
Warhammer 40.000: Dawn of War
The four vertex processors helped the GammaChrome to outperform the RADEON X300 in this game, but the deficiencies of the new product from S3 don’t allow it to reach the level of the RADEON X600 PRO, not to mention the GeForce 6600.
The S3 card falls behind the others once again in the “eye candy?mode. This time, however, it is close to the RADEON X300 which can’t be better in this test because of its slow memory.
Perimeter
Perimeter is a very demanding game and none of the tested cards ensured a comfortable frame rate even in 1024x768. As for the GammaChrome S18, it has the worst result among all the participating cards.
