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.

I would make the move to ATI if Stanford would get off their butts and release a proper GPU folding client for ATI cards.

I don't know if I'd do that.

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

If a proper client was ever release(we can dream can't we) the PPD better be good consider how power this cards uses.

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)

It really doesn't matter who is on “top”; no pun intended lol

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
Once and if they perform better but for now Nvidia's video cards are faster at folding.

ATI cards still fold, which is the key, either way you're helping out science.
