Just Cause 2 really looks great with everything turned up 
My turn to display this stunning and atmospheric game, Metro 2033. I have played this DX10 with two 4890s and then DX11 with two 5870s and have to say, enjoyed it more the second time. Firefights didn't slow things down and firing/aiming felt better.
Very scary and good 'film' type scenes every now and again!
Sorry for the png files. Is it the HIGH SCREENSHOT THREAD THOUGH!
1920x, mixture of High and Very High and 16/0 and 4/4 aa/af

its a trainer.. infinite ropes.. indestructible.. infinite heath/ammo etc.. xD the rope parts makes it fun lol a bit too easy tho
There's a difference between resolution and quality however. 2.5MB files is just bloody stupid, especially given the number of them.
Nice images, cheers
Really ought to play it some more but I'm still on a huge BC2kick now, just can't stop playing!
Feel free no to read the thread!

I am split between BC2 and Metro. Probably won't play Metro for a while but it is awesome. You really have to look everywhere and although the game is linear, you can venture into different places.
Oh and my FOV is 80 without eyefinity, which is coming soon

Whats with the displacement filter on some of those pics !
Is that how the game is or have you done it for artistic effect ?

It's the gas mask he is wearing, have to don it at certain points else you die. It's an important item.
FPS hangs around 60
DOF is off as it doesn't really do anything - it just distorts edges. Some of those pics are at 4MSAA but some are taken using the 4890s on DX10. Tesslation is defo on!
I was playing between Very High and High with either 16x/0x and 4x/4x for AF/AA respectively. I think these pics were taken with 4x/4x and Very High.
Game is awesome. Play with the lights off!
FPS is around 60fps!

I was playing it at 2560x1600, runs great.
I have to agree with Memphis, there's a difference between res and large file sizes, jpg would be better and it would be around a 3rd of the size with little to no loss in quality. People posting pngs and stupidly large gifs just because they don't take the time to convert to jpg is just lazy.
Its not whether people have broadband or not, its the fact that it slows your browser to a crawl whilst loading, especially people like me who have page size set to 150 posts etc.

youl only need 1 5870Would a single 5870 handle it at those settings? or should i get a 2nd too?
youl only need 1 5870
Yeah, sorry, 1 will do but I have two and pump out maybe 45-80fps depending on area at 1920x1200, Very High, 4/4
