Far Cry 2



Far Cry 2 still represents a good test of a system's credentials. Scaling well with more-powerful GPUs, running Far Cry 2 at a smooth 60fps at the high-quality settings is no mean feat at 2,560x1,600.

Benchmarks






Cranking out the pixels, GTX 480 is significantly faster than any single-GPU card - 70 per cent faster than the green team's own GTX 285 at 2,560x1,600.
