Far Cry 2 is a newer benchmark, and once the AA is turned up to max the
Sparkle GTX260 Core 216 is actually faster than everything but the Radeon HD
4870 X2, a much more expensive videocard.
Crysis is a science fiction first-person shooter
developed by Crytek. Crysis uses Microsoft's new API, DirectX 10 for graphics
rendering, and includes the new engine—the CryEngine 2—that is the successor to
Far Cry's CryEngine. CryEngine 2 is among the first engines to use the DirectX
10 framework of Windows Vista, but can also run using DirectX 9, both on Vista
and Windows XP.
