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.
Another nvidia favourite, but the architectural changes brought to market with the HD7970 and updated drivers have ensured that AMD are now competitive. The Sapphire HD7970 system provides similar performance to the GTX580.
Nice system this would make. The 7970 is brilliant and the motherboard seems well made, much like everything sapphire do. I dont really like their bioses however as I think they are adopting a different style of overclocking than everyone else with those mv. why not just make it core voltage and have direct keying in on the field like everyone else?
Sapphire are trying hard in the motherboard arena, they face such stiff competition however that they would need to focus on getting their pricing down. The Z68 board for instance cost more here than many of the ASUS products, and I dont think it sold very well
I am waiting on toxic or vaporx card from sapphire before buying a 7970. The AMD reference coolers suck, even this one, which I hear is better.
Motherboard looks ok, I like the fact Sapphire seem to be making everything themselves, including their custom bios configurations.
They seem to make good boards and I would buy one, but they seem hard to get in the UK even if I wanted to.
Didnt even know they made motherboards!
Hope they release a good VaporX edition soon. those reference cards dont appeal to me at all.
