Thanks in part to a dual-core, 2.4-GHz Athlon 64 X2 4800+ CPU and 1GB of DDR400 RAM, our Vision 64 review unit posted a WorldBench 5 score of 115, the sixth best we've seen. And it really shines in graphics and gaming performance: Its PCI Express EVGA E-GeForce 6800 GT graphics card with 256MB of on-board RAM helped produce the second-best frame rates yet on our Return to Castle Wolfenstein tests at 1280-by-1024 resolution. The only machine with a better score on that game--the MTower 64 AGE-SLI from Xi Computers--had the same CPU and motherboard, a nearly identical 256MB GeForce 6800 Ultra-based graphics card, and 2GB of system RAM instead of 1GB..
