Far Cry 2
Far Cry 2 (DirectX 10)
Far Cry 2 is the spiritual sequel to one of the best selling and longest living games on the PC though this title was developed not by Crytek, but by Ubisoft directly using a completely new engine as well. The game is set in Africa and you have malaria – what else do you need to know?
Far Cry 2 settings
Far Cry 2 includes a great benchmarking utility that allows us to setup for in-game testing of all varieties and includes both the ability to benchmark based on time (variable frame count) or based on speed (fixed frame count) – we went with the time-based option to simulate real-world gaming and allowing for apples-to-apples comparisons.
At the two lower resolutions the HD 5770 and the GTS 450 perform pretty much in line once again and the GTX 460 gets another reasonable performance lead.
Thanks for taking your time
Thanks for taking your time writing this review. I just purchased a new pc with GTS 450, should be receiving it tommorow. I think it’s a good card for a good price for anyone who’s not a high end game graphics maximalist.
As long as you are not
As long as you are not looking for a rebate, the GeForce is an OK product though I have had to replace my GeForce video card twice since my PC’s purchase six years ago. If you are expecting a rebate then this is not the product for you. I have been jilted twice on rebates and it won’t happen again.
