Sapphire Dual-X R9 270 Review

Aliens V Predator has proved to be a big seller since the release and Sega have taken the franchise into new territory after taking it from Sierra. AVP is a Direct X 11 supported title and delivers not only advanced shadow rendering but high quality tessellation for the cards on test today. To test the cards we used a 1920×1080 resolution with DX11, Texture Quality Very High, MSAA Samples 1, 16 af, ambient occulsion on, shadow complexity high, motion blur on.
AvP
No problems powering this game at 1080p, averaging 70 frames per second, and dropping to just above 40 frames per second in the most taxing section of the environment.

  1. Nice looking card – I think it all depends on the pricing. the HD7850 sold well near the end as they were often offered at £125. at that price they would be onto a winner, but £150? bit high I think

  2. Good performance and at least the shaders are up to 1280 over 1024 on the 7850. Only thing I feel is that AMD partners will sell the 270x at very close to 270 pricing, so not much point in having both. $20 difference? who will buy a 270 – feels like the 6830 and 6850 all over again. the cheaper part never sold as retail prices were so close.

  3. AMD Gaming Evolved is giving away this graphics card, 1 per week and you can enter up to 7 times per week. They are also giving away free pc games.
