Cost & Watts / FPS: 1920 x 1200 Cost & Watts / FPS: 1920 x 1200Please note that these charts represent performance ABOVE 30 frames per second as we consider this to be the minimum playable framerate of StarCraft II. Anything below this is considered a fail. Cost / FPS   Unless AA is enabled, we can see the GTX 480 is still once again far too powerful to be considered a good purchase for StarCraft II. You are much better served by a GTX 460 1GB or even the 768MB card if you are on a tighter budget and are playing on a 23” or 24: screen. Even if you wanted a bit more horsepower, the GTX 470 has also found its stride at this resolution. Watts / FPS   The ATI HD 5870 takes top spot when AA isn’t enabled which actually makes sense considering how little power it consumes in relation to its overall performance at this resolution. Once again, the GTX 460 and even the HD 5850 show that extreme performance isn’t all that important when it comes to a good combination of framerates and power consumption. However, if you want anti aliasing enabled then the GTX 480 really does come into its own. | ||||
