Testing Continued
For the purposes of the game testing I migrated the video card to an Intel based system. I also ran a long term stability and impact test for this card. Sparkle threw down the gauntlet on reliability and I have done my best to test this.

Call Of Duty: Modern warfare 2:
Following the critical acclaim of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare this was infinities Direct X 9.0 sequel. While this is no longer a “taxing” video game for the modern Direct X 11 cards, being the most anticipated release, it is nice to know how the card will handle all of your games, not just new ones.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2:
“Battlefield Bad Company™ 2 brings the spectacular Battlefield gameplay to the forefront of next-gen consoles and PC, featuring best-in-class vehicular combat set across a wide range of huge sandbox maps each with a different tactical focus.”
This is the latest popular FPS from EA games. It is very graphics intensive, and tests the capabilities of the DirectX 11 Engine Fully.
Dirt 2:
“The Colin McRae series has long been considered king of rally racers. With Dirt 2, Codemasters pays fitting homage to the late McRae while trying to appeal to a larger audience. The result is a gorgeous racing game with some satisfying rally sections and a whole lot of wheel-to-wheel racing.“
Aliens vs. Predators:
“Aliens vs Predator is an entirely new title for PC and high-definition consoles from acclaimed British developer Rebellion, the team behind the 1999 original PC gaming classic.”
This is simply the performance benchmarking demo of the new game, but it demonstrates the capabilities for the latest releases.
