After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.
Please update your bookmarks and be sure to visit the new and improved Ninjalane at Hardwareasylum.com

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
COD: Modern Warfare 2 is a second installment in the Modern Warfare series and set sometime after the conclusion of COD4. The game is a very fast moving first person shooter that is known for its incredible single player story line and strong online multiplayer community. MW2 is one of the top grossing games of all time. It is based on DirectX 9 technology and really shows that game developers can still make incredible looking games from older technology.
MW2 was tested with the following settings. Overall graphic details were set to the highest level along with 4x Anti-Aliasing on to push for the best gaming experience.
The GTX550 Ti has shown that it has no issue with putting up some serious performance in DirectX 9 titles. The EVGA GTX550 Ti FPB just pushes the envelope even further when playing Modern Warfare 2. The amazing thing is when running a pair of GTX550 Ti in SLI you can have playable framerates at full resolution on a 30" monitor.
