Game Benchmarks
Far Cry is starting to show its age by now, but it still can pull the weak hardware from the strong.

Far Cry | Foxconn 955x | Foxconn 955x Overclock L4 | % Change |
640x480 | 62.65 | 65.65 | 4.8% |
800x600 | 60.86 | 62.54 | 2.8% |
1024x768 | 54.35 | 61.99 | 14.1% |
1280x1024 | 47.04 | 49.24 | 4.7% |
These scores were averaged over many trials, but still the 1024x768 results look like a fluke. The performance improvement from stock to overclocked seems to stick around 4.7%.
Our newest game with a built-in benchmarking feature is F.E.A.R.

Fear | Foxconn 955x | Foxconn 955x Overclock L4 | % Change |
640x480 | 77 | 79 | 2.6% |
800x600 | 58 | 64 | 10.3% |
1024x768 | 46 | 49 | 6.5% |
1280x1024 | 34 | 36 | 5.9% |
This is the best gaming improvement yet on this system. F.E.A.R. must rely on a lot more than the video card, because the system overclock buys us an average of a 6% performance improvement.
