Palit Radeon HD4870 512MB Graphics Card Review

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare



This has quickly become one of the most popular games for the PC and with good reason. This is one of the few times I have experienced actual excitement when looking for a good area to record the timedemo. The graphics are amazing and at the same time quite demanding when you get into the higher resolutions.

For this test we recorded a 15 minute timedemo on the Crash multiplayer level and recorded framerates using FRAPS. The maximum in-game framerate was bumped to 999.


1280 X 1024





1600 X 1200





2650 X 1600




We begin to see a trend emerging here with the HD4870 loving it when higher IQ settings are implemented. What will absolutely stun you is the fact that this card beats the GTX 280 in one of the tests. This is probably due to the high-clocked memory more than anything but it is still impressive.
