Serious Sam: The Second Encounter
Quake III Arena MAX Configuration
Unreal Tournament 2003

Hyperthreading is enabled during our testing. The system is also in a dual channel configuration using two sticks of Kingston HyperX PC3500 in DIMM slots 1 and 2. The only thing that we disable in the BIOS is the onboard sound because it can sometimes affect the scores. The performance settings used for the video cards are all default by the drivers. We do not actually change anything other than the Antialiasing and Anisotropic Filtering.
