NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 Video Card Preview

Call of Duty: World at War


To benchmark this game, we played through 10 minutes of the second mission (Little Resistance) starting from right after the player calls in the rocket strike on the enemy positions on the beach. This was benchmarked using FRAPS.


1680 X 1050





2560 X 1600




We start this testing off with Call of Duty: World at War along with the first “holy shit” moment of testing. The GTX 295 blows right through a low-resolution CPU bottleneck I THOUGHT I had with the HD 4870 X2 while posting some absolutely incredible framerates. Overall, this new Nvidia card is a good 20% faster than the HD 4870 X2 while posting some minimum framerates which were higher than the average HD 4870 X2 scores. So far so good for Nvidia’s new flagship.
