Left 4 Dead survivors of an apocalyptic pandemic against hordes of aggressive zombies. We tested the game with all of its graphical settings at their maximum, with 4x anti-aliasing and 16x anisotropic filtering, and set to an in-game screen resolution of 1,920x1,200 (which required us to use an external display with the Core i7-920XM whitebook).

Enemy Territory: technologyis that each unit only takes up a maximum of 8MB of frame buffer memory.
Quake Wars Add to that HDR-like bloom lighting and leading edge shadowing effects and ETQW looks great, plays well, and works high-end GPUs vigorously. The game was tested with all of its in-game options set to their maximum values with soft particles enabled, in addition to 4x anti-aliasing and 16x anisotropic filtering. We tested ETQW at a resolution of 1,920x1,200 (using an external display with the Core i7-920XM whitebook).
The same story repeats here as well: strong playable performance, but nothing earth-shattering that would give enthusiast desktop systems anything to worry about.
On this very CPU-intensive test, the Core i7-920MX held its own quite well against all of the comparisons systems. Only the Core i5-750 and Core i7-920 desktop processors were faster--and by a fairly small margin.
