Budget Battle: HyperMemory vs. TurboCache

Far Cry 1.3 Performance
Far Cry also shows a performance lead for the NVIDIA cards. Our middle grade resolution of 800x600 shows a fairly linear increase in the TurboCache cards with the 32MB card again leading the 64MB part.
It isn't until we reach 1024x768 that the 64MB part starts making a difference, but by this time, framerates have dropped to lower than acceptable levels.
Far Cry is definitely best played at 640x480 on all of these cards.

Unfortunately, I don't think this was a completely fair test of hypermemory, since the Radeon X300 (synonymous with 9200) is complete crap, while Geforce 6200 is probably adequate for most users (I think there equivalent or better than the Radeon 9600's)
