DiRT 2 and H.A.W.X




DiRT 2 and H.A.W.X paint a slightly prettier picture, but there's no denying that a single Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 Edition card struggles to game at 5,040x2,100 with high image quality.

Gamers wanting to make use of the six-screen goodness with high image quality will need to resort to a CrossFire configuration. Our preferred option, however, remains the three-way 5,040x2,100 setup - which in our estimation provides the better gaming experience and most consistent performance.
