Testing - Company of Heroes



This amazing WWII real-time strategy game is also very demanding, and will use all the horsepower you can throw at it. We're using the in-game benchmarking utility, with the graphics set to maximum for the first series of benchmarks, and then again with anti-aliasing. For both series of tests, physics is disabled as it seems to introduce a lot of variability in the benchmark results. Patch 1.61 was used.

Between patches and driver revisions, on both ATI and NVIDIA hardware, CoH sometimes displays frame-rate throttling at 60FPS. Until we can find a way to disable the cap, we'll let you know when hardware is running at its limits or if it's just being throttled on the Performance Summary page.
