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. |
The new AMD Radeon HD 6990 put up some impressive scores in the FarCry 2 benchmark. Here, AMD's new flagship graphics card blew past all of the competition by a wide margin. The Radeon HD 6990 was between 43% and 65% faster than a GTX 580 and between 79% and 92% faster than the Radeon HD 6970.
