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. Lost Planet 2 runs on the MT-Framework 2.0, an updated version of the engine used in several Capcom-developed games.
We are testing at 5760×1080 with 0MSAA and 4AF, dx11features=middle, dxlevel=11, RenderDetail=middle, textures=middle, shadows=middle motionblur=on.
This is a tough game to power at high resolution, but by disabling anti aliasing and lowering a few of the image quality settings, we are able to get playable frame rates from both cards. The AMD HD7970 outperforms the KFA2 MDT x4 GTX580 by around 14 fps.
very impressive bit of hardware, but it might be released at a weak time for sales. I think a lot of people are expecting new cards from nvidia in the next 60 days……
then again 580 is a brilliant card, I own one. have for a year.
Thats a very good card design. Three fans, and metal backplate. looks like they went the full monty on this release. Dont see it for sale anywhere yet to confirm the price. I cant see them getting this out for £400.
Never seen many reviews on KFA2. Are they the replacement for BFG? the artwork looks similar.
They put a lot of work into their coolers, but its a shame they didnt use arctic again for this product. their fans are better.
Wow, that is one serious mofo of a card.
Yeah thats what im talkin about Nvidia ! cant wait for the new gen of hardware.
While its nice, its still a last gen card. going to be hard for KFA2 to sell that today, IMO. I like the cooler, they put a bit of thought into the design. Tri SLI anyone?
behind the 7970 and scores 7970 is in 3D mark 11 hahahahahaha
Pointless card is pointless:
1. Cause the 7970 stock is a better choice
2. Cause nvidia is rumoured to paper launch GK 104 card in a month and have it available on the market in a few weeks after that. The word on the streets is the GK104 might be a major improvement over the GTX 580 despite the rumoured smaller bus width.
Sure, it could happen. But to call this product ‘pointless’ is a little harsh. Its one of the best 580s on the market.
Without a doubt this is one of the fastest moving industries, almost every piece of hardware will be replaced by a faster or better product within a couple of months anyway. Its difficult to review something solely on what might happen a month or two down the line. I did mention the upcoming range however in the review….
just got this for $210 on craigs. this is the sickest graphics card ive ever owned!!!!! it tops out at about 880mhz core wich is INSANE!!!and the voltage comes pretweaked! and did i forget to mention it lights up on top??
