Sapphire HD6970 2048MB GDDR5 (Dual Fan Edition) Review

F1 2011 is the newest Direct X 11 racing game from industry pioneers CodeMasters. The 2011 Formula One season is the 62nd FIA Formula One season. The original calendar consisted of twenty rounds, including the inaugural running of the Indian Grand Prix before the cancellation of the Bahrain Grand Prix. Pirelli returns to the sport as tyre supplier for all teams, taking over from Bridgestone. Red Bull Racing are the reigning Constructor’s Champions. Red Bull Racing’s Sebastian Vettel is the defending Drivers’ Champion, one of five World Champions appearing on the grid.

The Sapphire HD6970 scores an average of around 5fps more than the HD6950, dropping to 56 fps in the more intensive game sections. CodeMasters have created a very smooth engine with little variance between minimum and average frame rate which translates to a great gaming experience.
