Call of Duty 2

Call of Duty 2 was tested with a custom multi-player demo. Quality Settings were set to max, DX9 rendering, and Trilinear filtering, except for 6200TC which got Bilinear filtering. Optimize for SLI was enabled for all cards.

First off we see the 6200TC is not playable even at 800x600. Only after turning everything down (or hitting auto set) was this game playable at anything over 640x480.

The X1300 Pro has a sweet spot of 8x6 with High Quality, anything higher and it really starts to slow down.

What a surprise! With no AA the X1600XT pulls off wins over not only the 6800GT, but the X850XT PE as well. With AA enabled it still manages to steal a win from both cards at 1600x1200, although at 11 FPS it?s really a moot point.

The X1800XL really shines in this test compared to the X850XT PE and 6800GT.

Finally we have the 7800GTX with slightly lower numbers than the X1800XT with AA off, but a slight lead at higher resolutions when AA is enabled.
