| Dawn of War II Dawn of War II![]() Even though Dawn of War II has its own in-game benchmarking tool, we decided not to use it. Instead, we played through approximately 10 minutes of the final Sapce Marine mission “Last Stand” while recording framerates with FRAPS. With a massive amount of enemies rushing your position and additional troops deployed on your side, this mission features some of the largest battles in the single player game. In addition, since the Tyranid swarms appear at regular intervals, this mission is also perfect for comparison testing. 1680 x 1050 ![]() 1920 x 1200 ![]() 2560 x 1600 ![]() Amazingly, the HD 5850 cleans up in what was originally an NVIDIA-centric game with once again very impressive framerates. It sticks close to the HD 5870 through the lower resolutions but once the system hits 2560 x 1600, the gap widens. | ||
