AMD HD7870 and HD7850 Graphics Card Review

Dead Island is a first person horror action-adventure video game developed by Techland and published by Deep Silver for Microsoft Windows. It is centered on the challenge of survival on a zombie-infested open world island with a major emphasis on melee combat. It is rather good fun, for a short while, but it becomes repetitive.

Great performance with this engine, with the HD7870 matching the GTX580 frame for frame. The HD7850 just outperforms the GTX570 by a couple of frames per second.

  1. Looks like a winner from AMD. UK get shafted on price though, always do,

  2. yeah, thats what im talking about. I was hoping more for £250 and £200 though. if the 7870 is £300 thats not much cheaper than 7950 which is now £350 in some places.

    Awesome, the 7850 is on my list, depending on the price. no where has them, when are they released?

  4. Loads of overclocking potential with the 7850. look forward to seeing the sapphire dual fan version when it hits. my only concern is US pricing. if 7870 is over £300 its f*cked. it needs to be £280 and 7850 needs to be £220 or less.

  5. AMD’s pricing is all wrong, that the killer. they are charging way too much for everything lately. and they complain about intel price fixing? the sooner nvidia get theirs cards out the b etter. then they will have to drop the price.
