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.
Some game titles have a slight slant to either AMD or Nvidia hardware, but HAWX 2 is heavily biased towards Nvidia hardware. Regardless, we can see that in CrossfireX the HD6790's can push an average of over 100 frames per second.
Thats a nice looking card for the price. like the cooler a lot. dual fans on a card with a modest power delivery is always going to work well.
Interesting to see they have opted for direct contact heatpipes. seems to work a treat.
Might be a better deal than the £105 HD5850 from sapphire, close call though.
I still think Sapphire have crapped on the 6 series mid range party with the HD5850 at that price, its a better card overall, and costs less. unless you want multiple screens or something, id still opt for it at the reduced price.
Very nice. THese are the cards people buy, not HD6990’s. i could insure my car for a year for that.
Good card, but, and its a BIG BIG but. The HD5850 which sapphire brought out again with awesome cooler.
Surely this is THE buy of the moment? or am I missing something
Big fan of dual fan cards myself, bought an ASUS Direct CU recently and its so much quieter than my last card
CFx is really good, but for £230 you could almost get a 6970.
Great looking board for the price, its 15 euros cheaper than sapphires here.
Dual fan coolers always work well and thankfully the companies know not to cut costs by using crappy fans that make a lot of noise. I think this one is a winner for XFX. price is good too, I was expecting it to be 130.
I want to aim higher, but im having problems getting the funds I need. this might do me and I can upgrade with another later in the year.
Just remember that when you are moving to CrossfireX that it is very driver based. if a new game is out it is a good chance you will have it beaten by the time AMD sort out the profile. it sucks from that point of view.
