Performance Recap
Here are the average scores for each card and each game. Cards that can’t render a game at a given resolution or with antialiasing are given a zero, which heavily handicaps all cards with 512 MB of memory or less at 2560*1600 + antialiasing (except for the Radeon HD 4870) and the Radeon HD 3870 X2, which can’t apply antialiasing in Mass Effect. Also note that the 4850 was at a disadvantage since our sample Asus card wasn’t able to render Race Driver: GRID, which raises the average scores for the other cards (especially over the Radeon HD 4800s).
