| Far Cry 2 DX9 Far Cry 2 DX9Even though Far Cry 2 has its own built-in benchmarking tool with some flythroughs and “action scenes”, we decided to record our own timedemo consisting of about 7 minutes of game time. It involves everything from run-and-gun fights to fire effects. 1680 X 1050   2560 X 1600   Once again it seems that Far Cry 2 is being CPU bottlenecked or the GTX 295 and HD 4870 X2 are just extremely well matched in this game. However, this is also the first time we see some issues with the GTX 295 at high resolution with AA enabled. The HD 4870 X2 is able to push pretty far ahead with some incredible AA performance while the GTX 295 looses nearly 25 frames per second the second 4xAA is turned on. This isn’t exactly the best result for Nvidia’s wunderkind but hopefully this can be shored up with some driver revisions before release. | ||
