HIS HD6990 Dual CrossfireX Review

Batman: Arkham Asylum is played as an over-the-shoulder, third-person perspective action-adventure game. The player controls Batman as he makes his way around the island and structures of Arkham Asylum. In addition to running, jumping and crouching, Batman is also able to glide from heights using his cape, and use his grapple gun to ascend short heights or escape and hide from foes onto gargoyle statues. In order to track Joker and other enemies, the player can switch in and out of “detective mode,” which activates special visors in Batman’s Cowl. In this mode, most of the game world is rendered in darker colors, but objects of interest and people are highlighted, including limited x-ray ability to detect the location of people.

Special objects with which Batman can interact, either directly or using various gadgets gained over the course of the game, are also highlighted. In some sections of the game, the detective mode is augmented to detect compounds, fingerprints, and other clues, which are used to direct the player to the next location to explore.

Good CrossfireX scaling from one of the best action games in recent years. Almost 90 frames per second average across four screens at 7680×1080 resolution.

  1. lol, bet you wish they could run in a 3x 6x setup !

  2. 14,000 in 3dmark 11. I thought i was doing well, breaking 5k last week 🙁 I suck.

  3. Wow. just wow. AMD are owning everyone this week……..

  4. YAY! 48k in vantage. insane, this card just friggin rocks.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. Man I’d love four screens and two of these. Best start saving.

    Oh yeah and a new psu

    And a new CPU

    Damn…..

  8. 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….

  9. 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…

  10. hell when you limit an overclocked 12 core intel processor at 2560 then you know you have something special !

  11. 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.

  12. That performance is just stupid. as in stupid good, not stupid sucky.
