Performance in Strategy Games

BattleForge

We enabled DirectX 11 support for the Radeon HD 5870.

Oddly enough, the overclocked Radeon HD 4890 is close behind the Radeon HD 5870 but both cards are awfully slow, making the game uncomfortable to play. Overclocking does not help improve that even though the average frame rate grows up quite a lot.

World in Conflict: Soviet Assault

The Radeon HD 4890, even when overclocked, loses to Nvidia’s solutions in bottom speed at resolutions higher than 1280x1024 but its speed is quite high. The bottom speed can be increased considerably through overclocking. As for the resolution of 2560x1600, the new and old generations of single-processor graphics cards are both insufficiently fast to use it.
