Gamers who enjoy Battlefield 3 will experience good performance from a Radeon HD 7950, but while all three pre-overclocked cards come out roughly where expected, this is a title that appears to prefer NVIDIA hardware. The previous-generation GeForce GTX 580 is cheaper than the each of three pre-overclocked HD 7950s, and delivers roughly the same performance in this title.
