Aliens vs. Predator Benchmark – DirectX 11
Settings: 1920×1080, 2x MSAA, SSAO On, 16xAF, Highest Benchmark Settings
Much like Left 4 Dead 2, Aliens vs. Predator looks ok on the default 6850 but the HIS 6850 IceQ X Turbo Graphics Card just pushes things that little bit further. With more stream processors, the 6870 stretches ahead further than both the other cards.
Colin McRae’s DiRT2 – DirectX 11
Settings 1920×1080, 8xMSAA, Ultra, DX11
For DiRT 2, the HIS 6850 IceQ X Turbo puts in a good performance, raising the average frames to 54. Minimum frames remain above 45 which is generally the area most will notice lower then 60 frame rates. This slight boost is enough to give you a very smooth game perceptibly.
