World in Conflict scales at low resolution, but not too much at higher resolution where on average it doesn't seem to matter what CPU you use - it becomes very GPU limited.

Enemy Territory: Quake Wars is slightly faster but it's nothing that's going to be noticeable though, especially at higher resolutions.
