Asus EAX1950XTX
10. Company Of Heroes
Review Pages
In Company of Heroes, gamers will experience the journey of the brave men of Able Company in a deep single-player campaign that begins with the invasion of Normandy through their fight across Europe, all set against the most dynamic battlefield ever seen in a game.
Company of Heroes' completely destructable environment means no two battles ever play out in the same way. Advanced squad AI delivers startling new realism and responsiveness, bringing soldiers to life as they interact with the environment and execute advanced squad tactics to eliminate the opposition forces.
The game offers impressive graphics, especially when all visual quality settings are set to the maximum.
We used the built-in benchmark for all tests with 1280x1024 resolution. Since AA/AF cannot be set from within the game, we used Nvidia's 3D control panel for each mode. The built-in Antialiasing settings within Company Of Heroes has been disabled. Let's now see how each card performed in the Company Of Heroes Benchmark with High Quality settings.
The Asus EAX1950XTX and 7900GS SLI had exactly the same average framerate. The 7900GT SLI however, had a better "lowest" FPS, indicating that it can better sustain a more constant framerate with this type of game and without AA/AF enabled.
The Asus EAX1950XTX again seems to be less affected by AA/AF and maintains an almost constant framerate regardless of AF/AA setting. The big loser here is the 7950GT SLI which drops dramatically once AA/AF are enabled.
