HIS HD6850 ICE Q X Review – the ultimate HD6850 ?

Mafia II is a gritty drama which chronicles the rise of World War II veteran Vito Scaletta, the son of Sicilian immigrants. As the game progresses, Vito will join the Falcone Crime Family and become a made man. There are 15 chapters in the game, connected into one storyline.

We tested at 1080p with fullscreen: on, antialiasing:on , Anisotrophic filtering: 16x, Shadow Quality: High, Ambient Occlusion: on, Geometry Detail: High and APEX PhysX: off.

The HIS HD6850 delivers very solid frame rates in Mafia 2, only falling behind the GTX460 Talon from MSI and the last generation HD5850.

  1. Wow thats dramatic looking. Not sure I can handle the blue !

  2. my sapphire 6870 reference can burn up to 85c in 1minute, and looks like still going up…omg

  3. great temps, my own card hits 88c under load. (6870)

  4. Wow that has to be the ugliest video card ive seen, ever. and it rocks. how ironic.

  5. I enjoyed reading the testing page. I agree, none of these speakers really get it ‘all right’ its a case of finding the best sound to your personal tastes and buying a value set.

  6. Just goes to show that most people who buy 580’s or 5970s to game on a 1080p monitor are just throwing their money away.

  7. a new IceQ? ooooooh i want it sooooo muuuch, dammit.
    glad to see that it’s still the coolest and most quite version of an ATI card. though, the difference is less noticeable than on older generations, it seems

  8. I think it looks great. very different and the market needs it. Id like a luminous red video card from AMD with a glowing red fan.
