Benchmark: Aliens vs. Predator

The standalone Aliens vs. Predator benchmark uses DX11 features such as hardware tessellation and advanced shadow sampling to draw and animate everyone's favourite xenomorph.
Continuing where 3DMark 11 left off, the Aliens vs. Predator benchmark shows a smaller increase in performance over a reference HD 7850, but it's once again enough to usurp a stock-clocked GeForce GTX 570.
Important to note that the card is just about capable of delivering a smooth experience at 1080p with maximum image quality settings, but ultra-high-resolutions are a step too far - 21.8 frames per second at 2,560x1,600 is sluggish.
