So I decided to run the benchmark with every setting at every resolution on my machine and tell you what I've found. Lets start from the top.

My system Specs:

Spoiler
Operating System: Windows 8 Pro 64-bit
Processor: AMD FX™-8150 Eight-Core Processor (8 CPUs), ~3.6GHz
Memory: 16384MB RAM
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti
 Display Memory: 4034 MB
   Dedicated Memory: 1986 MB
      Shared Memory: 2047 MB
       Current Mode: 1920 x 1080 (32 bit) (60Hz)

1080p

Maximum: While the game looked absolutely beautiful at the maximum settings at this resolution, I did run into some really boggy area's around the third segment of the benchmark. While on any setting at any resolution, my score reached at least 4,500 on the first segment (on other resolutions it was much higher), after that is where the real test begins. While my computer is perfectly capable of handling the game on maximum at this res., I'm not too fond of an average 45.153 FPS.

High: My computer found this one a little better, it ran smoother with less lagging, though there was still some, mostly in the more graphically intense sections. This is probably the setting I will use when I get into the actual game, but we'll see; a 59.373 FPS average isn't all that bad.

720p

And now onto 720p. The game itself ran much better at this resolution (again I know that's just my PC in general) but there was a little quirk I noticed that I'll get to in a second that would make 720p the best resolution to run in, despite your machine. Lets take a look.

Maximum: This setting ran just about as well as the High @1080p, little lag and mostly smooth sailing @63.330 FPS.

Custom

So, like I said, there was an interesting quirk I found. I decided to run the game on all low settings at two different resolutions: 1024x768 and 720p. Interestingly enough, the game ran better in 720, but what's even more interesting is that, even though the settings were all on their lowest, the game still ran better on medium settings @720. Not what I was expecting, but 720 seems to be the ideal resolution. -even though the game still ran amazingly-


720 Custom

1024x768 Custom

So that about sums up my experience with the benchmark. I know this is only specific to my system and yours may function differently. I just wanted to share.


Will post the results from my 2011 13" Macbook Pro once windows is done installing.
