ASUS ENGTX465 Review

Testing:

What would testing be if you did not show both sides of the fence? In this test, PhysX was set to low, while leaving the remaining settings intact. You have seen time and again where the ATI cards suffer when PhysX is enabled. Mirror's Edge and Cryostasis are two prime examples. Darkest of Days is no different. What happens in this test shows that, although the game can be played by cards from the red team, the video effects and quality are diminished.

Settings

• 4xAA
• 16xAF
• Global Settings = High
• Physx Low
• Ambient Occlusion On

Higher = Better

At 12 FPS, the performance differential between the GTX 465 and HD 5850 is consistent from top to bottom .
