Results - FarCry 1.31 (DirectX 9 Benchmark)

At lower resolutions, our FarCry testing became platform limited, but at 1600 x 1200, the limitation switched back to the graphics card's throughput and we were able to obtain reasonable comparisons at that resolution. Before you dismiss the GeForce 7800 GTX for its negligible gain when contrasted with a RADEON X850 XT Platinum Edition, take note that FarCry version used here is 1.31, which supports Shader Model 3.0. As such, gaming on the NVIDIA cards would give you better game realism with better image quality. So the comparison here isn't all too direct, but considering the already good performance, you would much rather expend some frame rates for better game quality, which is NVIDIA's argument (and one that we agree too).
