XFX Radeon HD 5770 1GB GDDR5 Review

Crysis: Warhead (DX10)

To benchmark Warhead, we recorded a 5 minute timedemo on the Ice level which included ranged and hand to hand combat. The sequence was then played back using the Crysis Benchmarking Tool from HOC

1920 x 1200



2560 x 1600



In Crysis DX9 we mentioned that the additional shading power of the GTX 260 216 was able to come into play at high resolutions but in DX10 it seems the larger framebuffer of the HD 5770 allows it to nearly draw even with the 260 at high res. It is also apparent that the GTS 250 1GB simply lacks the horsepower to keep up with this new ATI card.
