Using the cards in CrossfireX mode allowed me to play many games at 1920x1200 with 16x FSAA and 16x AF. Games like Resident Evil 5, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Crysis Warhead, Tom Clancy’s HAWX and many more were completely playable when two of the cards are combined. That’s not to say that a single HD 5970 doesn’t take any prisoners, because it does, but two of these cards make the ultimate in gaming rigs. One game that has particular merit for an ATI HD 5970 Crossfire review is Colin McRae’s Dirt 2. This game is bundled with many of the ATI HD 5 series cards as a bundled game. ATI’s beta Hemlock drivers did not support CrossfireX and the drivers with the Hot Fix didn’t work either. Using the Catalyst 9.12 drivers released yesterday improved performance when using two HD 5970s in this game to playable levels that weren’t available in the previous beta drivers. Two HD 5970s provide a wonderful gaming experience assuming you have the system to keep up with them. As they would cost upwards of $600 if buying a single card, buying two would mean a significant investment. For the no-nonsense gamer wanting the highest performance in games like Dirt2 and Crysis there is no other solution assuming you can find the cards. DirectX 11 games seem to have few improvements over the DirectX 10.0 games.
