Unreal Tournament 2003
Epic provided us with a new build of the UT2003 engine with a few more levels back when we were doing our testing on Trident's XP4. It is that same build of the engine that we're using here for our Radeon 9700 Pro benchmarks. You'll notice that there are quite a few more levels in this benchmark, one of which is even more intense than the previous king - antalus.

For starters, the Radeon 9700 Pro holds a 30 - 70% advantage over the GeForce4 Ti 4600 depending on resolution.

The asbestos benchmark has always been more CPU bound, which is why the Ti 4600 is able to come within 6% of the Radeon 9700 Pro at 1024x768. The largest performance difference here is just under 40% at 1600x1200.

Continuing the trend of looking back at the good ol' days.Considering inflation (vs 2020), this card launched at something like $550.
I still have one running on an Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe w/ a Barton @ 2.6GHz

So many great memories from my first PC build. What a great video card! Looks so pedestrian in 2020.
