Benchmarks

The SiS Xabre sounds like a great card on paper, but how does it really perform? To show how the card performs, we are going to show you all the DX and OpenGL capabilities by using the following benchmarks:
3DMark2000v1.1 (DirectX 7.x)
3DMark2001SE build 330 (Directx 8.x)
Code Creatures (OpenGL)
VulpGL (OpenGL)

The Test System:

Intel Pentium 4 "Northwood" 1.6Ghz@2.4Ghz
Abit TH7II
2x256MB PC800 Samsung (x300 mode)
Microsoft Windows XP Professional

3DMark2000

With all the settings at default with no FSAA or Eagle Eye modes activated, we get 10381 which is a very respectable score for default :)

3DMark2001SE Build 330

With 3DMark2001, we are going to show the difference between each Eagle Eye setting compared to the standard defaults. Do these options actually make a difference? In some cases unfortunately so...here comes more bogus 3D results (although not too bad for scores) it seems!
