Sleeping Dogs started development as an original title, 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 Blizzard in 2011. Six months later, it was announced that Square Enix had picked up the publishing rights to the game, but the game was renamed Sleeping Dogs in 2012 since Square Enix did not purchase the True Crime name rights.
This game is still a system killer at these maximised settings. We test at 1920×1080.
Good results in this demanding engine with very high image quality settings. The single HD7850 card averages 28 frames per second, jumping to 54 frames per second in Crossfire. The GTX760 Mini averages 42 frames per second although the minimum frame rate did drop to 25 frames per second once during our test environment – which is borderline for smooth gameplay.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point
It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
The 760 mini is lovely – really nice idea, if a little expensive.
The cards are good, but the cooler on the 760 is too small to really be that good for such a high end board – I would rather get a case that can take a full sized GPU, even if it was small, like a prodigy.
Too bad my three month old Asus 7850 DCUII V2 can’t even reach any core clock over 960mhz without crashing while in a game. Touched nothing but the core clock and 5% power addition.
1000mhz ran fine on tests. rock solid on 3Dmark11 and MSI kompressor though. Could be a driver issue, could be a bad card. Clean install though.
Still, goes to show that overclocking is not absolutely dependable.
