World in Conflict is a newcomer in the RTS genre, but Massive Entertainment definitely did brilliant. The graphics implement DX10 effects, soft particles and other effects, making the game one of the most beautiful real-time strategy games ever. Apart from the astonishing graphics, Massive Entertainment provided the user with exceptional interface allowing incredible control not only over the settings of the game but to the gameplay too. The multiplayer allows up to 16 players simultaneously, which can turn the game in to living hell for your computer. That's what the tests have to say:

you need to upgrade your flash player

As resolutions and settings rise so does the ranking of MSI R4870 and R4870-OC. To become more or less equal with those of NVIDIA GeForce 260GTX 896MB.
