Comparative Performance Testing (pg. 2)



Far Cry 2


Far Cry 2 seriously favours NVIDIA cards and this graph really does illustrate that fact. Interestingly, once again we see the GTX 460 1GB outpacing the more expensive GTX 465 while the 768MB is neck and neck with NVIDIA’s $270 GF100 card.


Just Cause 2


History repeats itself here as well with the GTX 460 cards more than holding their own against the competition until that magical 30” barrier is passed and then things take a turn for the worst.


Metro 2033


Unfortunately, there really isn’t much to see here since every one of these cards is incapable of playing Metro 2033 at the detail settings we chose. The GTX 465 does however show that its additional PolyMorph engines may be coming into play here since it is easily the fastest of the bunch. The HD 5830 also shows that it may have some grunt left in the tank as it too performs better than the two GF104-based cards. It also seems the GTX 460 768MB simply runs out of framebuffer in this high detail game.
