Unigine provides an interesting way to test hardware. It can be easily adapted to various projects due to its elaborated software design and flexible toolset. A lot of their customers claim that they have never seen such extremely-effective code, which is so easy to understand.
Heaven Benchmark is a DirectX 11 GPU benchmark based on advanced Unigine engine from Unigine Corp. It reveals the enchanting magic of floating islands with a tiny village hidden in the cloudy skies. Interactive mode provides emerging experience of exploring the intricate world of steampunk.
Efficient and well-architected framework makes Unigine highly scalable:
- Multiple API (DirectX 9 / DirectX 10 / DirectX 11 / OpenGL) render
- Cross-platform: MS Windows (XP, Vista, Windows 7) / Linux
- Full support of 32bit and 64bit systems
- Multicore CPU support
- Little / big endian support (ready for game consoles)
- Powerful C++ API
- Comprehensive performance profiling system
- Flexible XML-based data structures
We use the following settings: 1920×1080 resolution. Anti Aliasing off. Anisotrophy 4, Tessellation normal. Shaders High. Stereo 3D disabled. API: Direct X 11.
The MSI R6950 Twin Frozr III scores an average of 37.3 frames per second which is a very good result with this intensive synthetic benchmark.
Their coolers are really very good, we get a very low return rate on these cards.
Good deal on OCUk for that card. especially with two free, and very tasty games.
The big question is, with AMD about to release a new range of cards (well in a few months at least), is anyone opting for one of these now?
Really good looking card as usual from MSI. I never see them listed in many sites. Do scan even stock them?
I have one of these and its very good. I have problems with overclocking it however and I had hoped you might do better. mine is limited to 910mhz and it crashes 🙁
Quite a sexy card. Can’t wait until MSI will realease TwinFrozr III as retail cooler.
A very good and complete review. Just one question. Due to a discusion on the dutch site hardware.info it became clear that using the latest version of the drivers has a significant effect on the results. I would like to know if the results of the other cards as used in your graphs are also obtained using the same driver versions. If these are older results with older drivers then it might be a good idea to mention the driver version / date with the different test scores for the different cards.
I just like to mention that i frequently use this site to keep abreast of al the latest tech news. Keep up the good work.
I would like to thnkx for your efforts you’ve set in creating this website. I’m hoping the same high-grade web site publish from you in the upcoming as well. In fact your creative creating abilities has inspired me to obtain my own website now. Truly the running a blog is spreading its wings quickly. Your write up is actually a very good example of it.
