Far Cry
The Pier demo contains a large-scale scene, so its speed is determined by the performance of the whole system, especially in the “pure speed” mode.
Graphics cards with GPUs from ATI Technologies win the “eye candy” mode. The PowerColor X850 XT Platinum Edition AGP is 20% faster than the GeForce 6800 Ultra in 1600x1200.
The PowerColor is in the lead on the Research map, too, but the GeForce 6800 Ultra follows it closely .The gap between them is no more than 10% in the highest resolution. This result is due to the nature of the scene (the action goes on indoors) and to the support of Shader Model 3.0 by all modern solutions from NVIDIA.
