I will wait and see the new NVIDIA cards and prices drop. I got news that most people in my division are getting a raise, and should I finaly get it, the first months extra cash might go somewhere but my savings account :devil_2:

Any performance details yet for this card Marder, GregP or tintifaxl?

 

I don't do any benchmarks, but playing with max_fps=30 in the graphics config the fps stay there all the time with very high settings @1920x1200 in the Georgian Hammer missions whereas the GTX570 had it's fps drops.

 

I'm very happy with the performance. :thumbup:

The performance is really great. I think my i7 920 is the bottleneck right now ^^.

I get very good framerates but with mirrors and civ-traffic off :)

 

Everything else is set to the highest (even 16x QAA) @1920x1080 + 1280x1024

To Marder and other 7970 users:

 

Even with AMD7970, mirrors still need to be turned off? That's quite disappointing, since mirrors are very useful in a dogfight...

 

What difference in fps can you see between mirrors on and off?

I'll test it.

Maybe i had mirrors and and civ-traffic turned on/off the same time :)

Mirrors on affects mosrtly the CPU, not the video card, It's resolution is low and there is no AA/AF aplied to it but all objects behind you needs to be rendered/calculated... so this is like equivalent of doubling of your FoV

I never enter a dogfight in the A-10C, instead I always run and call in the cavalry. :P

Well I haven't done a test with the 7970, but back when I was using a 6970 (but still using a resolution of 6400x2160) my FPS went from 20 up to 23-4. I'd imagine just about same would happen with the 7970.
