Notes
We're now testing all video cards with Windows 7 RTM Ultimate 64-bit. Updating the gaming suite, Call of Duty: World at War and Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X are included. H.A.W.X enables the use of DX10.1 code-path and we've used it for AMD-based cards. Internal testing has shown it to be significantly faster than running DX10, and the benchmarks will show that.Crysis is also included, so get ready for super-low frame-rates. We've tested with the enthusiast settings on the train map, benchmarked via FRAPS.
Benchmarks were conducted at 1,680x1,050, 1,920x1,200, and 2,560x1,600 with the maximum in-game detail. Power-draw, temperatures, and overclocking are considered, too.
