3DMark is an essential tool used by millions of gamers, hundreds of hardware review sites and many of the world’s leading manufacturers to measure PC gaming performance.
Futuremark say “Use it to test your PC’s limits and measure the impact of overclocking and tweaking your system. Search our massive results database and see how your PC compares or just admire the graphics and wonder why all PC games don’t look this good.
To get more out of your PC, put 3DMark in your PC.”
The graphics score of around 5,000 points is close to the overclocked HD7850 which we reviewed in depth last year.
You know im in two minds over this.
Firstly, for the price – wow, what a great deal.
But another rebadge with some ‘tweaks’ from AMD? come on, its such a cop out 🙁 At least they didnt send you a reference card. makes a change!
The HD7850 continues to live – to be fair its AMD’s best GPU ever. Thats my take, so plenty of life still left in it, especially for £100.
The GTX760 is faster, but its £200, it wont be faster than two of these in Crossfire, for the same money!
Im glad the 7850 is still around. I got upgraded to one under warranty when my 6870 died. Its great and it can play pretty much anything almost on full at 1080p.
Then I did something silly and I got another one. Crossfire is really disappointing to me. There are too many games that don’t support it properly.
