Far Cry 3 VGA Graphics Benchmark performance test





Posted by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 11/30/2012 02:21 PM | 60 comment(s) ]
In this review we'll look at Far Cry 3 VGA Graphics benchmark performance with roughly 15 graphics cards. The new and popular title is looking great from a graphics point of view. But as a result how will it perform on a selection of different graphics cards ? This review will cover all these basics and then more so you know what choice to make either graphics card or in-game settings wise.
** Article updated Dec 4 -- Radeon cards have been tested with the new 12.11 Beta 11 driver and the number graphics cards benchmarked have been scaled upwards to 24 cards.

Nice article Hilbert - looking forward to the full article next we when you have the new drivers. Would be interested to see ultra setting performance particularly for SLI & xfire set ups to get an idea of the scaling!

Cool! Thanks for benchmarks
BTW
I'm not sure, but isn't 2600 faster?
Boss, do you have it?

The processor is a Core i7 965 clocked at 3750 MHz. This system is an equivalent to a Core i7 2600 K processor

This article will be continued next week once AMDs new driver is out.

Can probably get Ultra if MSAA and A2C is turned off. I run BF3 Ultra with only FXAA on High and get over 100fps at times

G1day peoples:
Well the thing is Where do we find the best performance when it comes to CPU and GPU Statistics? The best I can mesure is Better Quaility with my GTX 470 Than with my ATI 4870x2. I could go on and on but FarCray 3 is Here?

Awesome.
Specific Game based cpu, gpu testing here in guru3d is really appreciated.
@hilbert hagedoorn
a cpu bench on farcry 3 and ac3 would be awesome with fx6300 included.
I may buy a fx6300.

Very nicely done, Hilbert. Thank you.
Look forward to seeing how things change when you test with the newer AMD drivers next week.

The problem is: when you just sightseeing, everything's great and fps never drops below 60. In action, especially in close combats, the counter shows 25-30. Very annoying! My settings: 2560x1440, Ultra, no MSAA, SSAO.

I personally use the latest WHQL drivers and I really enjoy the game, no problems at all(*knocks on wood*)...
I use everything at max settings with MSAA X2, and HBAO instead of HDAO.
Seems fine to me, havent tried it with MSI afterburner or similar to keep track of FPS, but I get no slow downs or too much screen tearing meaning it is really smooth and nice to play with.
