Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.
I've been using my gtx 260 sonic for a 45 days and can report the following,
All at 1600x900 max settings, max af
Crysis 24fps no aa
far cry 2 46fps full aa
half life 2 240fps no aa (aa screws up the hud)
STALKER 115fps no aa (aa screws up the crosshair)
Dead space 130fps full aa
Call of duty 2/4 90fps full aa
GRID 55fps full aa.
Cryostasis demo 16fps no aa (game crash no matter what, i'm guessing demo trouble)
Codename panzers 18fps no aa.
3d mark vantage 1440x900, performance, no aa- 10295/29506
The performance while not at par with the online scores, is still satisfactory. I think the cpu is a huge bottleneck. Especially in crysis. I get a steady 24 no matter what happens on screen. Even aa makes no difference.
Conclusion: If you're getting a 260, get a better processor.
