how about benchmarking on brand new games rather benching on older ones?does anyone really care what scores these cards can achieve on stalker,hf2 or even WoW these days?
Games are not old. STALKER definitely isnt.
The games represent a array of different type of games and different engines used. You have there the most demanding (Crysis, FC2, STALKER) and more mainstream (WoW, HL2). HL2 btw is good representation for Source engine, you can easily put it in contrast with newer games like Left 4 Dead.
Crossfire looks very good. 2 5850's looks like the sweet spot. Real shame about micro-sttutering, is it still noticeable or not so?
Great job PCGH (again).
