Hmm
Maybe it's reasonable to assume that they used the same rig to take all of the screenshots.
1) its a NVIDIA named product, so it's most likely an NVIDIA card, which narrows it down sligthly.
2) Battlefield 2 hits 61.5 FPS, im not a bf2 player so I don't have any idea what kind of card or machine at that would hit that FPS level. UT runs at 57.4.
So if they did use the same machine, this is an amazing jump in graphics for little loss. Unfortunately there is no way to tell if they did or not.
3) The Gamebryo screenshot uses nvidia drivers version - 6.14.10.8596.
Its safe to assume they used the latest driver update each time, now find out how old that is.
4) Last Updated: 07 / 31 / 2007 <- The screenshot section of the website was last updated then. So its only a couple of months old.
5) And to bring me to my last and best point - World in Conflict is also not that old a game, and therefore the screenshot won't have differed that much from when UT3s was taken. So therefore the rig would most likely have been the same. That screeny fetches 21.3 FPS. Thats due to a lot of action on screen at the time (explosions).
Settlers 6 also has a 26.1 FPS rate.
World of Warcraft at 66.4 (but older game)
Its possible they were testing using different setups when they took the shots, but its a rough guideline.
But if anyone can compare there setup to these games, then they could probably assume how things will run on UT3 in comparason.

). In 2k4 I had a reasonable mid range pc with a ati 9600 something-or-other and got roughly in that realm (map dependent obviously) with high settings. So I don't personally find that too far fetched.
