And best of all, it's silky smooth! Unlike the 5970, which was microstuttering all over the place. Luckily Crysis was the only game I noticed that with the ATI card.

Love it!

My 470 is shaping up to be the best card I've owned yet. Very happy with it. Hoping there's a 512 core part (is that right?) to step up to in the next 3 months - I'll grab the 480 for sure.

Sorry for the late response but i will let you know ASAP i just had to go to work so i did not get to test it Very much yet But so far it's really good

I'm using the New beta drivers. i'll also bench the Official 1.05 version of Arma 2 and the Beta 70709 aswell so stay tuned.

**LT.Schaffer** · 05-25-10, 07:27 PM

Well i just tested Batman AA with both 197.75&257.15

With 197.75
Minimum:40 FPS
Maximum:107 FPS
Average:71 FPS

With 257.15
Minimum:31 FPS
Maximum:101 FPS
Average:66 FPS

now i'm off to test Arma 2

Update:
Arma 2 Run's like a slide show with 197.75,and with 257.75 it was stuttering&the benchmark crashed the game

this occurs in the Beta 70709 and the 1.05 Official Version on Steam

I've been using 197.45 for some time. ArmA 2 runs like a dream (same version and beta build), maxed out with normal AA, 6 km view distance. Haven't tried any of the newer sets, yet...

**LT.Schaffer** · 05-26-10, 01:19 PM

well i'll give them a try since you've got a 470 and are using them anyway.

Thx
