After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.

BFBC2 is built on the Frostbite game engine which is fully DirectX 11 compliant. It has a fully destructible environment which makes it a stunningly visual game which pushes the limits of any video card.
Settings used in testing are as followed.

Once again the DirectX 11 games seem to really make the EVGA GTX560 Ti SC fight for any extra frames even with that overclock. Both GTX560 Ti cards looked very good against the GTX470 though. The SLI configurations setups were very consistent until the 1680x1050 resolution giving the GTX560 Ti SLI a sizeable advantage.
