DiRT 2 and Battlefield: Bad Company 2

DiRT 2

DiRT 2, a lovely-looking racer and one of the first games to use a DX11 path offers improved visuals whilst burning through the London map.

Smooth frame-rates once again, but this time the £175 GTX 460 SOC is a little farther in front.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2

Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is set to maximum detail and a 30-second section is FRAPS'd whilst we run through the trenches, stumbling upon a bunch of enemy soldiers and letting rip.

We're back at the status quo of mildly-overclocked HD 6850s keeping in close contact with a top-line GTX 460 1GB.
