11. Against The Desktops - Doom 3

We use the Doom 3 default timedemo, "demo1," for each of our tests. First, the graphics card driver is set to "application controlled." Then in the game we disable FSAA and the high-quality setting for the first run. When set at high quality, anisotropic filtering is automatically enabled and set to 8 sample mode. For the second run, we turn FSAA to 4X to really tax the GPU.

At 1024x768 Doom3 is playable with AA at four times sampling and 8X anisotropic filtering.
