Homefront’s PC version was developed by Digital Extremes, a Canadian developer responsible for numerous Unreal Tournament games and Bioshock ports. It received mixed reports, although Kitguru really likes the single player aspect of this title. The engine isn’t the most demanding on the market, but it requires decent partnering hardware for solid frame rates at 1080p.
Strong results, averaging 63 frames per second at these high settings. Just a single frame slower than the HD7950.

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.

Another good card from the Sapphire team 🙂
Great cards. My friend bought one and its really quiet. the coolers are great this year.
Bought the 7970 last week 🙂
Quality cards, but its a tough decision id have to base on price right now. as they all overclock much the same.
Its XFX or Sapphire usually, but that gigabyte card is a solid buy,
Only one problem. YOU CANT FIND IT ANYWHERE !!!”
nice specs. good performance sapphire coolers seem a bit better than XFX coolers in regards to tempeatures.
