Mafia II

Mafia II hit the shelves recently and has proved to be a big hit. We use the internal benchmark and dial-in antialiasing and high-quality settings.

A bit of mix-and-match here. GTX 460 1,024MB SLI jumps out at 1,920x1,080 but is pegged back at 2,560x1,600. 

Mafia II doesn't exhibit the near-perfect CrossFireX scaling shown in other titles, but, once again, the single-card HD 6850's deficit to a Radeon HD 5850 is wiped out when two GPU setups are compared against one another. What's more, it makes the game silky smooth at 1,920x1,080.
