Powercolor HD6870 PCS++ Review

Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. 2 is an arcade-style flight action game developed by Ubisoft Romania and published by Ubisoft. After the events of the first game, the H.A.W.X squadron is sent to Middle East, where a high level of violence is being registered, and the appearance of various insurgents leaders in various hotspots. The team also has to investigate the mysterious disappearance of Russian nuclear weapons. The player will be controlling three groups: one American (Hunter), one British (Munro) and one Russian (Sokov), each with its own pilots and supporting characters. There will also be references to other characters in the Tom Clancy universe.

We are testing in full DX11 mode with all settings to maximum.

HAWX 2 is a popular flight sim combat game which runs well on Nvidia hardware. The overclocked PCS++ delivers good frame rates, pushing out an average of almost 70.

  1. Nice looking cooler indeed. weird about the temps, that seems very high. the A on the furmark and GPUZ seem VERY high though, I wonder is the bios messed up?

  2. They are making some great cards. bummer you got a dodgy sample. it happens. at least they arent cherry pickin them

  3. Hey, can you pass over my details to powercolor? I have the same card and the same problem. I dont think its your specific sample, perhaps a faulty batch with too much voltage?

  4. 5eenbynotheard

    Score is too high, the card is faulty, you review what you are given. 6/10 max

  5. Fumark is too much of a stress test now. its like prime. its useless nothing ever stresses out hardware this much. something like crysis is fine. all you need

  6. This is why Sapphire get such a good name, because things like this just dont happen for them!

  7. 6870 isn’t a good seller for AMD. its one of their worst sellers. the lower end boards get them their gravy.

  8. optix what do you mean? i think this deal about sapphire being perfect is stupid.

    I have had sapphire cards fail before years ago. most of them are made in the same factories anyway by palit.

  9. You scored it too high, even if it is a bad card, you needed to score it lower. Cant take powercolors word on it !

  10. I found another review and theirs seems ok. I think this one might have a different bios with more voltage. the Amps look higher than even most OC’d models ive seen in furmark.
