For the quality-discerning, 32-bit connoisseur, Quake III also offers High Quality settings for a little added realism and visual splendor. This is where the Sharky Extreme lads and girls prefer to play. Again, we set the systems up with v-sync off.
With the same blazing speed at low-resolution tests, the ASUS GeForce2 GTS hardly breaks a sweat. As the resolution increases however, we see a fraction of the speed observed in the Normal quality tests. Not to worry though - boasting a consistent ~30% gain in high-res situations (over an original GeForce), 1280x1024 has become quite tangible. Again the ASUS card performs a couple of frames per second short of the NVIDIA reference design.
