AMD ATI Radeon HD 4770 512MB GDDR5 review

Page 10 - Performance: BattleForge

BattleForge is one of the fresh additions to the RTS genre. The game is card based, similarly to Magic: The Gathering, but it is hard to be described, because, honestly BattleForge isn't trying to be like any other game... It is at once a real time strategy, role-playing strategy and even a massive multiplayer oriented. The lack of analog in stunning graphics out there is what made this game part of this review. Yes, BattleForge supports the full range of DirectX 10 effects, but if we must describe it with a single word then it would have to be this one - BEAUTIFUL. Look at these screenshots and see is we're imagining things :)

Tests were concluded with the internal benchmark at "medium" details with 4xAA, which as it turns out was not getting the best visual results even at bearable performance (above 20-24 frames per second).

As whole yet again HD 4770 dominates in this game compared to its direct competitor - HD 4830, and 9800 GT is falling behind by considerable margin. At higher resolutions the slower memory is an apparent liability and HD 4830 manages to gain momentum.
