Call of Duty 2



Still widely considered one of the most visually stunning games around, Infinity Ward/Activision’s Call of Duty 2 is one of the most ideal benchmarking platforms we could think of. While the volumetric smoke effects and complex textures in the game keep your graphics card sweating, the physics engine and 3D environments can cause your CPU to have a lot of trouble as well. We tested Call of Duty 2 on three different graphics settings sets and four different resolutions. For this benchmark we used the Call of Duty 2 Gotfrag Demo #16396.





Call of Duty 2 produced some very interesting results. In every test, there is very little difference between the frame rates produced by either processor. While we might go so far as to say the difference is a little bit noticeable, the main point these numbers show is that Call of Duty 2, even on the lowest possible settings, is heavily limited by the graphics card.
