Test configuration

Considering the performances on the ATI Radeon HD 5570 and its initial “base” cost, the tests were done only at these resolutions: 1280 x 1024, 1680 x 1050 and 1920 x 1200 pixels.

In order to analyse the performances, an Intel Core i7 965 Extreme-based platform was used, with clock frequencies of 3.2 GHz and Turbo Mode enabled. The system also features 6 GB of RAM, with the frequencies of 1.600 Mhz, Driver ATI Catalyst 10.1 and Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit.
