5870 vs 5970 bad company 2

so there is a difference visually? everyone iv spoke to said it looks the same:confused:

Barely any difference whatsoever, dx9 can't use anti aliasing and thats really it. Only difference dx11 has over 10 for example is the shadows are slightly smoother.

Have you played it in 1080p, 8xAA, 16xAF, HBAO on, VSync on and everything on High? It looks stunning!

My 5870 gets 60fps pretty much locked at those settings, looks awesome....

Console port my ass, I've got the PS3 version too and ain't played it as it looks utter sh*te.

I think my trusty PS3 may be going into retirement :( until GT5 hits!
 
I'm definately going xfire 58XX (between 5850 and 5850 depending on what I afford :))

Can't wait to up the details and run EF :)

Thats an easy choice then, hmm, gonna get myself 5850, or 5850, hmmmm.
Could not resist, i am sure you meant 5850 and 5870 :)
 
Go for a 5850 if you just want an upgrade for it. More than fast enough and much cheaper than the 5870.

If you want something that will last a longer consider a 5970, 5850 X-Fire or 5870 X-Fire setup. All are overkill for a single 1080p display, though.
 
5870 runs it fine at full settings 1680x1050 so if i were u i'd get one of those now and a second sometime in the future when games require it or if u go for 3x24" Eyefinity ;)

Nothing like a console port IMO looks incredible.

Look great. what settings you got in the ati ccc ?

Cheers.
 
Havent changed anything in CCC, that was taken with full settings in the ingame menu. I'm going to try forcing more AA next time i play.
 
You max out on a 260. at what res ?

my single 275 via multiplayer, was far to stuttery for me.

when i added the 2nd one, it was 100 times better.. i think it was a dud anyway, as i't's died on me :( so maybe 5850 here i come.
Was gonna see what that femi could do. but will be far over priced i'm sure :p

1680x1050 also my 260 is clocked
