Sapphire HD3870 512MB TOXIC Edition Review

World in Conflict DX10

1280 x 1024





1600 x 1200





2560 x 1600


The HD3870 cards hate DX10 with this game. Period. With what looks more like a driver issue than a real performance bottleneck, if you want the minor effects increase DX10 gives you in this game we recommend you stay away from ATI cards. It is good to see the Sapphire card eking out a few extra frames per second here and there but when push comes to shove, there is no helping performance here.
