Aliens vs. Predator, Just Cause 2, Mafia II

Aliens vs. Predator

The standalone Aliens vs. Predator benchmark uses DX11 features such as hardware tessellation and advanced shadow sampling to draw and animate everyone's favourite xenomorph.

Just Cause 2

We like it a lot. Keeping things comparable, NVIDIA-specific features such as the Bokeh filter and GPU water rendering are turned off.

Mafia 2

Mafia II hit the shelves this summer 2010 and has proved to be a big hit. We use the internal benchmark and dial-in antialiasing and high-quality settings.

The benchmark numbers show that the Razor is just a touch quicker than a standard GTX 460 1GB. We reckon that improvement is down to the newer drivers.

Don't let the low-ish benchmark scores fool you, as the Razor is pitted against the very best single graphics cards money can buy. Trading blows with the Radeon HD 6850, KFA2's card is good enough to play most games at high/ultra-high quality settings with a full-HD resolution.
