Meet The 2012 Graphics Charts: How We're Testing This Year

BUT I DON'T HAVE MICRO-STUTTERING...!
at least I can't see it......😉

I used to run mostly Radeons until I started playing Sacred 2, which uses PhysX. I haven't played it lately, so I'd consider AMD again; but right now they do seem to be having more driver problems.

As for the 2x and 3x Monitor setups, I think a lot more people USE those setups, but still just play on one of the monitors, like me.

But gaming full screen on one monitor, while having email, websites, messengers, Skype and maybe an office or other program or three up on the other monitor is something I've been doing for years. Maybe having Outlook (checking for email every 2-3 min), and a interactive web page (lots of flash) open on the other screen WHILE doing the game benchmark on the other would help let people like me see how well the card can handle it. (But yes, I know the limiting factors would be way to many - some general info could be found on how each card runs a game while having to keep things moving on the 2nd and 3rd monitor too.)

Guiminer is what noobs use, at least run Diablominer. Meanwhile, why not PrimeGrid? As well, where is Shogun 2 in those DX11 benchmarks?

very happy with new GPU benching
especially adding in the GPGPU benches
keep up the good work
and what about a HD 5770/6770 soon?

Ah that new GPU smell. I just got my Radeon 7870 from Newegg and it is sitting on my desk awaiting installation in a few hours - can't wait!

Do you have a download link for the Starcraft II replay that you use for your benchmarks? I would like to replicate these tests on my systems.

Ah that new GPU smell.

You sure that's not overcooked silicon? 😉

Tom's could you please describe how you perform scripted runs through Battlefield 3? Do you have som sort of external keyboard & mouse record-playback software? What's the name of that program? I would very much like to perform my own little private benchmark between two graphic cards I've got lying around here.
