Two separate maps were used for the benchmark. The first is
Demo_1
, which is the
default DOOM
3
benchmark, and consists of the Mars City Underground level right
after the demonic invasion, where you confront a number of Imps and UAC
personnel turned into Zombies.
The second map,
VIAVGA_D3,
is a custom-recorded DOOM
3
benchmark created by
VIA Arena
and is available for download. This visually intensive benchmark is based
on one of VIA Arena’s premier custom-made multiplayer maps for DOOM
3
. Not only
is this map designed for lots of fast-and-furious deathmatch fragging, but it’s perfect
for stressing even the fastest video cards and CPUs.
Because DOOM
3
scales well visually at lower resolutions, the game still looks pretty
good at 800x600 and 1024x768. Since the majority of environments in the game are
dark, using higher antialiasing settings to eliminate jaggies isn't as much an issue as
it would normally be. Acer doesn’t specify in the documentation or their website what
the response time for the 15.4” WSXGA+ LCD display is, but I detected no ghosting
while playing DOOM
3
or any other game on the
Ferrari 4000
.
