- 3D Performance with Call of Duty

The folks over at FiringSquad have tested and documented the performance of a stack of various nVidia based cards using Infinity Ward's popular title "Call of Duty". Cards ranging from the Geforce2 Ti through to the 5900 Ultra were rounded up. They also have a seperate article in place using ATI based cards here.
