Battlefield 2142


Battlefield 2 – Direct3D






Notes

No matter what we tried, we couldn’t get the Radeon X1650 XT card to run with stability in BF2142 under Windows XP x64, in fact all three cards crashed to the desktop during our manual walkthrough tests we conduct with this game. Only the X1650 XT crashed much quicker than the other cards did. Surprisingly enough though we didn’t run into any stability issues inside Vista, although the game did load a little slower.

As you can see, the Radeon X1950 XTX actually recorded a performance improvement under Vista, at 1280x1024 the margin is 15%, which is much higher than we expected to see, especially considering that the X1950 Pro didn’t register any performance improvements in this game. The X1650 XT also saw a performance increase of 13% under Vista at 1280x1024. Nice!
