- Testbed DirectX9

3D Mark 05 (v1.3.0)

For all the tests we used the default settings of the 3DMark05 software as you can see below:

3D Mark 06 (v1.1.0)

Again we left all the settings to default:

Half Life 2: Episode 2

- Testbed DirectX10

3DMark Vantage v1.0.1

We used the three built- in benchmarks to test the performance of each graphics card. We measured the performances at various resolutions using the "Performance" and up to the "Extreme" settings.

Company Of Heroes (v1.7.1)

We used the built-in benchmark with all the graphics detail settings maxed out.

Crysis v1.2.0

We used the hocbench Crysis benchmark tool at the resolutions of 1280x1024, 1680x1050 and finally 1920x1200. We run the benchmark software with "High" and "Very High" details enabled in order to identify the optimum settings for a decent game play.

Crysis WarHead v1.00

We used the FRAMEBuffer benchmark tool at 1280x1024, 1680x1050 and finally at 1920x1200. All the possible quality levels were set in order to get an idea of what each graphics card can offer.
