XFX HD 5870 Review

Testing:

Crysis Warhead is a standalone expansion pack situated in time with the story line of the original Crysis. As Sergeant "Psycho" Sykes, you have a secret mission to accomplish on the far side of the island. Along the way there are EMP blasts and aliens to contend with, as you hunt down the KPA chief. This game uses an enhanced version of the CryEngine 2.

Crysis Warhead is much the same story as Far Cry 2 - this might be a recurring trend. The HD 5870 obviously has more power than the 4870's and even the 4890's. Overclocking gained one to two frames extra in each resolution here.
