Official HD4870X2 (R700) Review Thread

[Eastcoasthandle]

1fps is hardly a loss (what's the margin of error?), so 4870 and 260 are equal and considering that the 4800s don't support physx I wouldn't say the 260 is doing better.. it's better in frontlines but only by a few and wins at 2560. Also I guess the 280 and X2 are bottlenecked at res lower than 2560 so we're not sure it's a tie.

OT: guru3d's graphs are confusing different shades of blue that switches with each test, they can do much better.

Those FPS were compiled via average over several runs. Therefore hardly conclusive when averages show 1 FPS, for example. The point being, the reviews of the X2 do show that the 4800 series having problems consistently beating the 200 series when games need the PhysX driver installed. Can the perfomance in GRAW 2, Frontlines: Fuels of War, etc improve with better drivers? We can only hope so...
