AMD HD7770 & HD7750 Roundup: Sapphire, XFX and HIS

Sleeping Dogs has been one of the few games I have really enjoyed recently and it runs well on both Nvidia and AMD hardware. We wouldn't say the engine was the most demanding, but it looks great and runs well at high resolutions with modest hardware.

The game was originally in development as an original IP, but was announced in 2009 as True Crime: Hong Kong, the third installment and a reboot of the True Crime series. As a result of the game’s high development budget and delays, it was canceled by Activision in 2011. Six months later, it was announced that Square Enix had picked up the publishing rights to the game, but the game was reannounced as Sleeping Dogs in 2012 as Square Enix did not purchase the True Crime name rights.

The HIS HD7770 GHZ Ed IceQ X delivers great results with this engine, averaging 78 fps at these settings. Crossfire scaling is also very strong with the latest drivers, which is reassuring as the game has just recently been released.
