Call of Duty 4 – HD 3850

Call of Duty 4 (DirectX 9)


 

Call of Duty 4 is the next iteration of the very popular CoD series and is a return of the Infinity Ward team that made CoD1 and CoD2 so successful.  The graphics for this title are simply amazing, and considering that it is still a DX9 graphics engine, developers of these DX10 titles we use should be shamed!  If you want a great single and multi-player experience set in a modern warfare environment, don’t pass up Call of Duty 4.

Call of Duty 4 is a great new DX9 engine that looks absolutely fantastic and seems to perform pretty well even on these mid-range cards. The new HD 3850 is able to run about 45% faster than the 8600 GTS card and 110% faster than the HD 2600 XT at 1600×1200 and about 78% and at 1920×1200. The CrossFire results are bit more impressive than those in Bioshock with about a 43% gain in performance.
