As you can see in Crysis the frames are very good in HIGH, but at Very High is a little bit difficult to play with 25fps.

In COD4 the frames vary greatly from map to map, so I decided to put several images so you can see the fps. The frames not fall from 60fps.

For the World In Conflict there is little to say, I think the test speaks for itself. For me the best RTS of all time, always with much game action, and the frames are very acceptable.

Benchmark DX10 very controversial, but the performance with CF is very pleasant.

WE could say that Lost Planet was a direct conversion of the consoles for PC, hence the lack of optimization, but with the CF there is no problem on the frames, as you can see in the test.
