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 Asus EAH5870 put up some great numbers in the FarCry 2 benchmark. Here, the dual-GPU powered Radeon HD 4870 X2 and GTX 295 pull ahead at the lower resolution, but only the top-of-the-line GeForce is able to hold onto its lead once the resolution is increased to 2560x1600.
