Battlefield 2142

Battlefield 2 – Direct3D

Notes

Battlefield 2142 is based on the same game engine used for Battlefield 2, and therefore doesn’t use shaders extensively like some of today’s newer games. As a result, the extra texturing units found in the GeForce 8800s help them pull away from the Radeon HD 2900 XT cards in this game. In fact, the performance of the Radeon HD 2900 XT closely mirrors that of the Radeon X1950 XTX, which has the same number of texturing units and ROPs as the Radeon HD 2900 XT.

What’s really holding the Radeon HD 2900 XT’s performance back in this game however is probably the graphics driver.
