HIS Radeon HD 6950 IceQ Edition Review

Lost Planet 2 is a third-person shooter video game developed and published by Capcom. The game is the sequel to Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, taking place ten years after the events of the first game, on the same fictional planet. We don’t really enjoy playing this game, but the engine is a great Direct X 11 test of modern hardware.

If you want a game to test your graphics hardware, then Lost Planet 2 is one of the best Direct X 11 tests available. The only card which is playable at these settings is actually the HIS HD6950 IceQ X PLUS Edition averaging 35 fps.

  1. Very nice, shame it looks like a fisher price toy …

  2. Ordering one, my friend has a IceQ card and I agree its basically silent.

    Simple fact is, once it is shoved in a case you never see it again. its not that bad though. its different I like different

  3. wow quite surprised it was that good, my HD6950 hits 88c in furmark 🙁

  4. Whats their UK warranty like. no info on it? do you return it to OCUK or not? they shafted me before with a motherboard and no one helped.

  5. It shows that a small fan isnt necessary bad. they have used massive heatpipes and a huge venting area to ensure it spins slowly. nice idea. shame they dont do a black cooler version. I have a case window mod with lights and this would look hideous in it. (all red lighting in my case)

  6. seems like a very good product indeed

  7. Seems to be the best 6950 around. You didn’t point it out, but the fact that this is also a rear exhaust card makes it pretty amazing.

    And I think some black paint might help it out a bit.
