2,560x1,600 is just about playable on the three cards, with the GeForce GTX 216-core models doing best.

What's interesting to note is that there's a 32 per cent performance gain over the Radeon HD 4870 1GB when looking at the 1,920x1,200 results, and between 50fps to 66fps that becomes significant.
