Anno 1404 graphics cards performance results (1)

Alright, so today we'll test in four widescreen resolutions with the image quality settings as explained over the last few pages. We'll be scaling from 1280x1024 towards 2560x1600.

Monitor resolution 1280x1024 --  Pretty much any graphics card above the 100 USD range can manage this resolution versus IQ setting just really fine. No worries whatsoever. Since this is a RTS, 30 FPS actually is play (but barely). If you play the game in this monitor resolution, a Radeon 4850 or GeForce GTS 250 I would recommend at minimum though.
 

A very common used resolution is 1680x1050 or 1600x1200. Here we'd recommend a Radeon HD 4870 or a GeForce GTX 260 SP216 for a little extra bite in rendering performance.
