Dead Space 2 is a survival horror third-person shooter. The player controls Isaac Clarke from a third-person point of view, looking over the character’s right shoulder. The game features no HUD elements, relying on holograms projected from the player character and his weapons to show information such as messages and ammunition count, respectively. Player health and stasis is shown by a visual indicators located on Isaac’s back. Isaac must fight an alien organism that infects and takes control of human corpses, turning them into “Necromorphs”, mutating their bodies.
Necromorphs must be dismembered as the alien organism controls host bodies via tentacles extending into their limbs. Other, larger types of Necromorphs that cannot be dismembered will often have yellow, glowing pustules, indicating weak spots. Occasionally, when an enemy gets close enough to Isaac, they will grab a hold of him, and the player must repeatedly press a key to fend off the enemy, with failure to do so leading to death of the player character.
Another title which is starting to suffer from CPU limiting. Any of the hardware on test today however can power through this game without a problem, even the lower end HD6870 has no issues at these settings.
lol, bet you wish they could run in a 3x 6x setup !
14,000 in 3dmark 11. I thought i was doing well, breaking 5k last week 🙁 I suck.
Wow. just wow. AMD are owning everyone this week……..
YAY! 48k in vantage. insane, this card just friggin rocks.
I wouldnt be getting all too excited just yet, Nvidia have yet to unleash the GTX590 which I would think might kick the 6990’s arse.
The nvidia architecture is slightly more powerful overall, but its all about temperatures, otherwise they would both slap three cores on a PCB and duke it out. its not quite that simple.
its actually a feat of engineering in itself that AMD got this crappy single fan to cool such a powerful card. I almost choked on my cornflakes when I saw that tiny red fan, used YET again.
Man I’d love four screens and two of these. Best start saving.
Oh yeah and a new psu
And a new CPU
Damn…..
Crazy frame rates, do we really need kind of power? Best game in months was dead space 2 and it could run well with a 6850.
Portal 2 should be the same….
Hey quick question. Whats this sticker over the bios switch, do you void warranty by running the card at full speed? Is it dangerous? I really really don’t get this…
hell when you limit an overclocked 12 core intel processor at 2560 then you know you have something special !
One thing is certain, you wont be running this setup on a 650W psu. I think a 1200w is a minimum for this setup. might get away with 1000w, but it would be rather highly loaded with the rest of the components in the mix.
That performance is just stupid. as in stupid good, not stupid sucky.
