AMD has released a number of slides demonstrating the power of their upcoming 5870X2 graphics cards and hosted a live demonstration showing it comfortably playing Crytek's latest CryEngine 3. Images courtesy of Fudzilla and Hardwarecanucks.
This multi-GPU beast more appropriately known as Radeon HD 5870 X2 was shown in a meeting room running CryTek’s latest CryEngine 3 development build at very smooth framerates. More specifically, the engine was running at 1920x1200 with AA turned off (as CryEngine has never needed manual AA) and the Screen Space Ambient Occlusion (SSAO) rendering technique was significantly more pronounced than in Crysis and Crysis Warhead.
