Well for once the results are surprising in many ways:

1. The ATi HD2900XT performs much worse than expected
2. The game runs fine on an X1950 Pro
3. Enabling DX10 mode finally manages not to halve your fps

Still, I'm more interested in seeing how the midrange cards perform in this game, mainly the HD 2600XT and Pro, and the 8600 series.

Btw, I'm glad I went with ATi last gen, this AGP card definitely doesn't disappoint me in this game, and perhaps the 512mb might even help as well when I get a bigger monitor.
