Performance in RPG

Fallout 3

It is hard to find the winner at low resolutions. At a resolution of 2560x1600 ATI’s products deliver a somewhat higher average performance whereas Nvidia’s graphics cards, including the GeForce GTX 295, offer a higher bottom speed. Here, your shopping choice should be based on personal loyalty to the particular brand and on the consumer properties that do not affect performance directly such as noise, power consumption, etc.

As you can see, the single-chip flagship products Radeon HD 4890 and GeForce GTX 285 both make this game playable at 2560x1600. There is no reason to pay extra for expensive and power-hungry dual-chip solutions, let alone systems with three or four GPUs.
