BFG GeForce GTX 260 896MB Video Card Review

World in Conflict DX9


This is one stunning game. World in Conflict has provided us with some of my most memorable gaming experiences since the first Homeworld game was released and it has not stopped wowing me. In its DX9 form it provides eye-popping visuals and pushes most modern GPUs to their limits. However, in DX10 mode this game will cause nearly every graphics card to beg for mercy.

For this test we used the in-game benchmarking tool.


1280 X 1024





1600 X 1200





2560 X 1600




The BFG GTX 260 was able to deliver very good performance throughout our World in Conflict DX9 testing where it was continually able to best the HD4870 in all but one resolution. Overall, this test has always favored Nvidia cards but it is still impressive to see some of the numbers this card put forward.
