Benchmark Results: Far Cry 2
by
Tino Kreiss
Far Cry 2 is a classic 3D shooter based on the Dunia engine, which enables it to display beautiful DirectX 10-class effects. Visual highlights include the way the game renders fire and water, the regenerating plant life, and the dazzling effect of looking into the sun. For our high-end tests, we used the quality setting Very High.
This test consists of the benchmark sequence Ranch Small that shows several people, brush, burning grass, and some huts. Once you combine a resolution of 1920x1200 with anti-aliasing, memory size and speed become important. Again, our maximum AA level was 8x.

I'm struggling to figure out why people keep using The Last Remnant as a benchmark considering how skewed its results are in favour of nVidia cards. Apart from that, good guide.
Nvidia bias as usual from THG.
An HIS 5770 is available in Australia for under $A200, Powercolor even cheaper. Fantastic value, particularly with the scope for overclocking. I'll be in India for the next two months, interesting to check Mumbai prices.
Nice guide.I'm happy how you tested it with the tom clancy's games,and fallout 3,but,to make it better Crysis & Crysis warhead should be in the list,those games need a powerfull engine
Nice anyway.
im also suprised the only 5000 series here is the 5770. ODD isnt it
The 5870 and 5970 came out on the open market like what 3 months ago. It is odd that these guys cant acknowledge there EXISTENCE. I do believe they are biased in there benchmarks. I mean if u can show Nvideas 2gig card why on earth wouldnt u show ATI`s 2gig card. Or even the 1gig. Not very honest on there part i am ashamed to say.
i am waiting to take order of one of these cards cant wait.....had to upgrade the psu to a 700w(mainly becaue it was cheeper then a 500w) going to put it all in 2morro night will let you know how it handles
p.s good review
