Benchmark: Crysis 2
Review: HEXUS.net/qa5cd | Where2buy: amazon.co.uk |
Crysis 2 may not have lived up to the expectations set by its predecessor, but with the DX11 patch and high-res textures, it's a gorgeous-looking game.
Performance is almost on par with a Radeon HD 7950 in Crysis 2, yet the PowerColor and Gigabyte cards cost roughly Ā£40 less.
There's not a lot to separate the two, though. Both ship with a 1,100MHz core, and the 100MHz memory overclock doesn't give the PowerColor card a significant edge - it's less than one per cent quicker than the Gigabyte model at either resolution.
