ATI Radeon HD3870 X2 1GB Review
by Michael "SKYMTL" Hoenig     |     January 28, 2008

1600 x 1200 Resolution Testing (DX9)


Company of Heroes




Half Life 2: Episode 2




Lost Planet: Extreme Condition




World in Conflict




Prey




Results Analysis

As the resolution increases, so does the lead the HD3870 X2 has over its competitors. It is really amazing to see this card best some of the best Nvidia can offer in every single test except Lost Planet with AA turned on. Lost Planet keeps proving to be a bit of a thorn in ATI's side but this is mostly a driver issue and should be discounted as such. Other than that, the HD3870 X2 proves to be king of the hill at this resolution both with and without AA turned on.
