Just Cause 2

Homepage: justcause.com | Publisher: Eidos Interactive | Developer: Avalanche Studios

Just Cause 2 is one of the older titles in our suite and uses DX10 visuals. It's no longer cutting edge, but it's still a lot of fun and can be used to cross-reference older reviews.

Just as we observed with the R9 280X, ramping up to a 4K resolution halves the framerate present at 2,560x1,440. The circa-50fps is decent enough for this older title.

Total framebuffer usage remains below 1.5GB at all times, thus not taxing the cards in that regard, and AMD stays about 10 per cent ahead.
