Deus Ex: Human Revolution Performance Test

You do realize that the 5870 is actually faster than the 6870 a lot of times? This game included. Take a look at the graphs again. The same can be said for 5850 often enough. Also, you didn't say which i5 your friend has.The 2500k is 15% than the 750 in this game with a 580 GPU.
 
Dear Techspot reviewer,

Was wondering, under system Testing Notes & Methodology you mention what drivers for NV and ATI but no mention if you installed/used catalyst application profiles (CAP). 11.8 CAP 2 was released on 8/21/2011. That CAP release was aimed specifically at deus ex crossfire performance. ie

Deus Ex: Human Resolution – Improves CrossFire performance for DirectX 11 version of game
 
Nice overview, but before jumping to the conclusion that dual core processors w/o hyperthreading will struggle running Deus Ex on highest quality, it would have been nice to actually measure the impact on framerates. I doubt that dual core processors will "perform poorly". Worse than quad cores? Yes, of course. Poor, game breaking performance? Not likely.

The latest CAP2 11.8 were used.

But we did measure the impact on frame rate performance?

Did you read the article?

LOL - I pictured you with the face I make when my wife asks me why I didn't do something. Were your shoulders shrugged at the time you were typing this?

Yes and head was slightly tilted to one side.
