Far Cry 3 is an open world first-person shooter video game developed by Ubisoft Montreal in conjunction with Ubisoft Massive, Ubisoft Red Storm, Ubisoft Reflections, and Ubisoft Shanghai and published by Ubisoft for Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It is the sequel to 2008′s Far Cry 2. It has received a lot of acclaim from the public and is up for contention as Game of the Year via many publications.
We configured this game to run with extremely high image quality settings, as shown above.
While the Sapphire Toxic cards are out in the front, the battle between the VTX3D HD7990 and GTX690 is closely run and too close to call in the real world. We did notice a very slight edge for the HD7990 however, averaging a couple of frames per second extra in our test environment.
dear lord, my epenis is so small right now 🙁
Seems like a great price point, even though it costs as much as my system im working on right now!
Bit of a bargain for the high end gamers with loads of disposable budget.
both this and the GTX690 are quite power efficient, considering!
Would have been nice to see two HD7870 Tahiti LE’s in CF, just to give a viewpoint of what could be achieved with around £400.
Good review otherwise, dream system material
Seems I got one of the five left 🙂 just in time ! thanks for review ! awesom!
what power supply will you be using Tom?
just ordered a 1000W Seasonic, as I needed to move up from my older 750W corsair.
Costly day, I hate this site sometimes 🙁
Sadly the framerates DON’T tell the whole story as Hardocp and Tech report have shown, crossfire might show higher framerates but real world game play is not as smooth as SLI.
Real world gameplay was perfectly smooth on the HD7990 with the latest AMD beta drivers – unless there is a Crossfire glitch with a specific game I didn’t test (which is possible as that can happen). I was playing games on it for a few days.
Wow, this thing is ridiculous, I need a new card lol
