Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. 2 is an arcade-style flight action game developed by Ubisoft Romania and published by Ubisoft. After the events of the first game, the H.A.W.X squadron is sent to Middle East, where a high level of violence is being registered, and the appearance of various insurgents leaders in various hotspots. The team also has to investigate the mysterious disappearance of Russian nuclear weapons. The player will be controlling three groups: one American (Hunter), one British (Munro) and one Russian (Sokov), each with its own pilots and supporting characters. There will also be references to other characters in the Tom Clancy universe.
We are testing in full DX11 mode with all settings to maximum.
A favourite for Nvidia hardware, however the results above are very good indeed, placing the MSI R7970 Lightning right behind the dual GPU HD6990.
Lovely, very nice, and yet again very expensive……… we can only dream!
Wow… so thats £500 for a card with no copper used as a cooling material, and Aluminum used instead,
thats a less ductile material = an inferior cooling solution, using a cheapr material for more money…
MSI really know how to impress – or charge more for using cheaper materials!!!
Good point from muppett, copper might have improved on the results by 1-2 c more.
however, the end result is great as the testing shows.
@muppet:
Actually the Cooler material is copper, but it’s nickel coated, so it doesn’t corrode (very, VERY easy with copper)
Only the fin array is made of Aluminium
I take it 12.3 drivers were used for this test and the other custom 7970’s?
