Okay guys, I did a benchmark for a game called Sniper Elite V2 long time ago. Found the records so I'm gonna share it here now.
To do the benchmark, download the free stand alone benchmark program from this here:

K, here is the specs of the old system I did it on:
Mobo: Intel DP55KG Extreme Series Desktop Motherboard
CPU: Intel i5 750 2.6Ghz
RAM: Kingston HyperX 12GB 1333Mhz
Storage: WD Caviar Green 7200rpm (HDD)
Video card: MSI Twin Frozer GTX 680 4GB
At that time I only upgraded the video card on that old system to have the above specs. I guess the CPU was a bottleneck.
The results:
1920x1080 (one monitor on 16:9 aspect ratio)
Min. 56
Max. 129
Avrg. 90
3840x720 (three monitors spanned for a surround gaming)
Min. 35
Max. 116
Avrg. 79
4800x900 (three monitors spanned for a surround gaming)
Min. 23
Max. 80
Avrg. 55
5760x1080 (three monitors spanned for a surround gaming)
Min. 16
Max. 59
Avrg. 40
All resolutions here give relatively bad game play results, as it seems. The reasons for that I think are the CPU, which happens to be 2.6GHz only, even if it is a quad core (no threading processing tech. supported), and using the maximum available settings with the maximum available edge enhancements it allows, which can be extremely heavy on both the CPU and GPU.
The benchmark tool itself is there to actually test what the system is fully capable of, and the setting I chose were too, and not for a game play, so it is expected to have low results. With that however, the first two results seemed to be acceptable at some point.
Any questions?
