Unreal Performance Test 2002 (Build 856) 640x480x32 Toshiba 1905-S277 1.6GHz Desktop 1.9GHz Desktop 1.8GHz Desktop 1.7GHz Desktop 1.6GHz Desktop 1.5GHz Desktop 1.4GHz WinBook N4 1.8GHz 20.7 16.7 16.5 16.4 16.1 16.1 15.9 7.3 | 0 | 4 | 8 | 12 | 17 | 21 | 25

As one would suspect, the WinBook N4 does not fare so well in gaming situations. Due to the fact that the graphics chip used in the N4 is actually more stripped down than the bottom of the line GeForce2 MX desktop graphics chip, it is no surprise that the WinBook N4 started out in the gaming benchmarks by going as slow as it did. Our desktop test system was equipped with a higher performing GeForce2 MX 200 graphics card which offers a core speed advantage over the GeForce2 Go 100 used in the N4.

As a result of the slow graphics chip, the N4 performed at less than half the speed of the desktop systems equipped with the GeForce2 MX 200. The Toshiba Satellite 1905-S277 with its Mobility Radeon graphics chip easily crushed the competition despite its age.

Nothing changes as we move to 800x600x32. The desktop systems are clearly limited by the graphics chip and apparently so is the WinBook N4.

We find the same story as the resolution is cranked all the way up to 1024x768x32.
