Benchmarks: Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X, Fallout 3



In Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X we used maximum in-game quality settings with 4xAA enabled. The Radeon HD 5970 was just 10% faster than the Radeon HD 4870 X2, while it was 46% faster than the single-GPU Radeon HD 5870.



Finishing up our gaming benchmarks we have Fallout 3, which was tested using maximum in-game quality settings with 8xAA/16xAF enabled. Despite the high quality visual settings, the Radeon HD 5970 averaged 81fps at 2560x1600, making it 11% faster than the Radeon HD 4870 X2 and 37% faster than the Radeon HD 5870.
