Benchmark: Aliens vs. Predator

The standalone Aliens vs. Predator benchmark uses DX11 features such as hardware tessellation and advanced shadow sampling to draw and animate everyone's favourite xenomorph.

Aliens vs. Predator is one title where NVIDIA's drivers don't appear to be up to scratch. ASUS's DirectCU II TOP is understandably quicker than a reference GTX 680, but the NVIDIA cards don't look quite as impressive as the AMD alternatives in this game.
