Palit Revolution R700 Deluxe HD4870X2 Review

Testing:

Far Cry 2:

While I have not run all of the cards in the comparison list through the Far Cry 2 benchmark,I will add the XFX GTX260 XXX cards in an SLI configuration as well as an HD4870x2 to the list of cards I have run through the testing. Our testing is not yet complete but you can look for Far Cry 2 to become part of the OverclockersClub benchmark suite. The settings used are just a few steps below the maximum in-game settings and offer a good blend of performance vs. visual quality.

Settings:

• Direct X 10
• 2xAA
• Game settings to very high
• Vsync Off

Compared to the green camp, the R700 HD4870X2 performance does not seem to scale all that well here. The 8.11 Catalyst drivers contain the Far Cry 2 and Stalker Clear Sky hotfixes but the performance is still lower than that of the boys in green on the dual GPU HD4870X2.
