Sapphire R9 290X Vapor-X OC Review

Battlefield 4 (also known as BF4) is a first-person shooter video game developed by EA Digital Illusions CE (DICE) and published by Electronic Arts. The game is a sequel to 2011′s Battlefield 3. Battlefield 4 is built on the new Frostbite 3 engine. The new Frostbite engine enables more realistic environments with higher resolution textures and particle effects. A new “networked water” system is also being introduced, allowing all players in the game to see the same wave at the same time.Tessellation has also been overhauled.

We test at Ultra HD 4K with the HIGH Image preset.

We drop the image quality settings a little at Ultra HD 4K, because the only card that can handle that level of IQ is the R9 295 X2. Frame rates from the Sapphire R9 290X Vapor-X OC are smooth, holding well above 40 at all times.
