AMD Radeon HD 5870 1GB CrossFire Performance Review

Now we move on to a far more important topic – Real-world game testing. Here, we put both our AMD Radeon HD 5870 CrossFire configuration through its paces under Windows 7 Home Premium x64 in no less than eight current game titles. For the duration, of this article, we’ll be catering towards standard sized LCD owners by starting out with a target resolution of 1920×1200, albeit with AMD’s own 12x edge detect anti-aliasing mode and 16x anisotropy enabled to make the most of the additional image quality capabilities on show here, before following this up with some far more GPU intensive rendering at 2560×1600 for you 30″ LCD owners out there to stress the boards more fully – first without any anti-aliasing or anisotropic filtering, followed by testing with 8x AA and 16x AF enabled.

  1. Yes agreed, ATI would be even more desirable if they folded nearly as well as the Nvidia cards

  2. I'm sure it is, and i'm sure stanford will eventually improve their client for ati cards, seeing as now they just reached the top, (for now)

  4. i'm sure now that these cards perform better, they'd be more willing to upgrade their client to support ati cards, to increase the WUs
