Like the original, FarCry 2 is one of the more visually impressive games to be released on the PC to date. Courtesy of the Dunia game engine developed by Ubisoft, FarCry 2's game-play is enhanced by advanced environment physics, destructible terrain, high resolution textures, complex shaders, realistic dynamic lighting, and motion-captured animations. We benchmarked the graphics cards in this article with a fully patched version of FarCry 2, using one of the built-in demo runs recorded in the "Ranch" map. The test results shown here were run at various resolutions with 4X AA enabled. |
Once again, the Radeon HD 5850 and GeForce GTX 285 are evenly matched. In the FarCry 2 benchmark, the Radeon HD 5850 pulled slightly ahead when tested at a resolution of 1920x1200, but the GeForce GTX 285 came back to score the victory at the higher resolution.
