Unreal Tournament 2004 Performance
Without aniso and antialiasing enabled, it looks like NVIDIA is leadign the pack.
This time around, it seems like kicking up the antialiasing and anisotropic filtering also gave a kick in the pants to R420. The top end X800 XT takes the least performance hit from enabling these features.

Advanced features are worthless if your driver team keeps breaking them..f11 - Tuesday, May 4, 2004 - link
kinda starting to feel sorry for nvidia now. each generation they stuff their cards with more feautures than they need to, end end up with a slower and more featured card. If anyone's expecting SM3 to be a big hit, remember that the original FX line had lots of extensions to DX9 and they never really made much a difference.
