ASUS EAH3870 512MB Graphics Card Review

Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts DX9

Company of Heroes has always been one of our favorite RTS games with visceral firefights and a gripping campaign. Opposing Fronts is the expansion to this great game and it introduces players to British campaign to liberate France from German occupation in the weeks and months following D-Day.

In this test we ran the in-game benchmarking program and pegged all the graphics settings to their highest levels. This was done for both DX9 and DX10 modes and the framerates were averaged after 4 runs.




Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts DX10



The ASUS HD3870 TOP was able to provide very good framerates throughout our COH testing and only really faltered at the highest DX10 resolutions with AA enabled. It seems like the overclocked ASUS card is able to keep a good 5-10% lead over the stock card in all of the resolutions.
