Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
The new add-on to Company of Heroes is tested in DirectX 10 mode only since it provides the highest quality of the visuals.
The overclocked frequencies help the XFX card keep up with the GeForce 8800 GTX at resolutions higher than 1280x1024, but both have a very low minimum of speed. We recommend you to stick to 1280x1024 if you don’t want to disable FSAA.
Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars
The game having a frame rate limiter, you should consider the minimum speed of the cards in the first place.
The frame rate limiter doesn’t allow this test to show a winner. All the cards are equally good for running Command & Conquer 3.
World in Conflict
The increased clock rates give no advantage to the XFX card over the reference card from Nvidia. The G92-based solutions are both inferior to the GeForce 8800 GTX in terms of average performance but have a higher minimum of speed, at least at 1280x1024. You can try to play the game at that resolution with FSAA enabled, but you may find your gaming experience not very enjoyable.
