I did some benchmarks on various configurations for whoever may be concerned.




These are the videos from which the above resulted from.

==============

Some interesting stuff regarding these tests:

- Some CPU limits manifested on the system with the Phenom II+460. The system would perform better with a faster cpu. Not too bad though.

- The 460@850Mhz, even cpu limited, performed better than the stock 5850 although the 5850 system was not cpu limited. This is easily explained if you consider than the Phenom system had a higher percentage cpu usage.

- The 570@850Mhz is 75% faster than the stock 5850.

- Generally there's good cpu usage on all systems.

- It was quite playable at 1080P even on the lowly 50euro 4850 512MB! Please note that noAA was used for the 4850

- Multi GPU is non existent for both IHVs.

Overall, not a bad game, although evidently consolised. Still, not my thing...!
