Dirt Showdown is the latest title in the franchise from Codemasters, based around the famous Colin McRae racing game series, although it no longer uses his name, since he passed away in 2007.
We configured the game at the ULTRA preset with a 1080p resolution and 8x MSAA.
A strong engine for AMD hardware and drivers. We can see the Asus GTX690 slots in at the bottom, with an average frame rate of 109, dropping to 80 in the most intensive sections of the environment. The VTX3D HD7990 is significantly faster with this title, averaging 135 frames per second. The Sapphire HD7970 Toxic Edition 6GB claims the top spot.
dear lord, my epenis is so small right now 🙁
Seems like a great price point, even though it costs as much as my system im working on right now!
Bit of a bargain for the high end gamers with loads of disposable budget.
both this and the GTX690 are quite power efficient, considering!
Would have been nice to see two HD7870 Tahiti LE’s in CF, just to give a viewpoint of what could be achieved with around £400.
Good review otherwise, dream system material
Seems I got one of the five left 🙂 just in time ! thanks for review ! awesom!
what power supply will you be using Tom?
just ordered a 1000W Seasonic, as I needed to move up from my older 750W corsair.
Costly day, I hate this site sometimes 🙁
Sadly the framerates DON’T tell the whole story as Hardocp and Tech report have shown, crossfire might show higher framerates but real world game play is not as smooth as SLI.
Real world gameplay was perfectly smooth on the HD7990 with the latest AMD beta drivers – unless there is a Crossfire glitch with a specific game I didn’t test (which is possible as that can happen). I was playing games on it for a few days.
Wow, this thing is ridiculous, I need a new card lol
