Battlefield 2 (Direct X)


Battlefield 2 is one of the first games to come along in quite a while that turned out to really push the current and even following generation gaming hardware.  Having the privelege of being the first game that might need 2 GB of memory is either a positive or negative, depending on your viewpoint.  Here are our IQ settings used:

While our first round of testing showed the 7900 GT and the X1800 XT to be on equal footing, with AA and AF enabled, the 512 MB of memory on the X1800 XT makes a world of difference in BF2 where levels are large and memory is a must!  The pair of 7900 GTs does very well though making up for the difference, far out performing any other setup.
