Asus GTX760 Direct CU Mini and HD7850 Direct CU II V2 Review

After a delayed release from late 2012 to March 2013, the game received much anticipation and hype. Tomb Raider received much acclaim from critics, who praised the graphics, the gameplay and Camilla Luddington’s performance as Lara with many critics agreeing that the game is a solid and much needed reboot of the franchise. Much criticism went to the addition of the multiplayer which many felt was unnecessary. Tomb Raider went on to sell one million copies in forty-eight hours of its release, and has sold 3.4 million copies worldwide so far.

We use the ULTIMATE profile shown above and test at 1920×1080.

The single Asus HD7850 struggles to hold a frame rate above the sweet spot of 25, at all times. The GTX760 Mini on the other hand generates around 5-8 frames per second more, meaning smooth frame rates throughout. In Crossfire however, the HD7850 cards produce an average of 62 frames per second.
