A comparison of the stock Ubuntu 12.04 LTS x86_64 installation with an Intel Core i7 3770K with Intel HD 4000 graphics of the Linux 3.2 / Mesa 8.0.2 / xf86-video-intel 2.17.0. This was compared to Mesa 8.1-devel, Linux 3.4, and xf86-video-intel Git with libdrm update as of mid-April. Everything else for the Intel Core i7 Ivy Bridge open-source Linux graphics comparison was left the same to just show how the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS IVB graphics performance is already stale but not easily update-able to all end-users of the Linux dekstop. Benchmarking for a future article on Phoronix.com.

This is a test of OpenArena, a popular open-source first-person shooter. This game is based upon ioquake3, which in turn uses the GPL version of id Software's Quake 3 engine. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
This is a benchmark of Nexuiz, a popular open-source first-person shooter. This game uses the DarkPlaces engine, which is a largely modified version of the Quake engine with extra features such as High Dynamic Range rendering and OpenGL 2.0 shaders. Learn more via the OpenBenchmarking.org test page.
ETXreaL is a new engine that's paired with the original id Software Enemy Territory game assets. The improved open-source engine offers 64-bit support, an OpenGL 3.2 renderer, OpenGL VBO (vertex buffer object) changes, true 64-bit HDR lighting, deferred shading, real-time sun lights, relief mapping, and many other visual features not found in the original id Tech 3 engine with Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory.
