Sapphire HD7950 Overlock Edition Crossfire Review

Crysis Warhead, like the original Crysis, is set in 2020, when an ancient alien spacecraft is uncovered on the fictional Lingshan Islands, east of the Philippines. The single player campaign has the player assume the role of a member of Raptor Team, a squad of mostly American soldiers outfitted with cutting-edge technology. Specifically, they play the role of former British SAS operator Sergeant Michael Sykes, referred to in-game by his call sign, “Psycho”. Psycho was a supporting character in Crysis, in which players played one of his Raptor Team squad mates, Jake “Nomad” Dunn. Psycho's arsenal of futuristic weapons builds on those showcased in Crysis, with the introduction of Mini-SMGs which can be dual-wielded, a six-shot grenade launcher equipped with EMP grenades, and the destructive, short ranged Plasma Accumulator Cannon (PAX).

Anti Aliasing is set to x 4 and anisotropic filtering is x 8. We are using ‘gamer' quality setting. (Direct X 10).

A single card struggles to maintain smooth frame rates across three screens. Adding another helps to boost the average and minimum frame rates, creating a smooth gaming experience.

  1. Awesome, if its £360 thats £130 less than their 7970….

  2. 1,200mhz? thats insane. worth the money for that alone!

  3. Looks like this is the new ‘to buy’ card, like the previous 6950 which could be unlocked.

  4. Why are all the companies supplying them in such low states of clock? 1000mhz seems easy and would get them sales.

  5. ARIA Dont sell this one. just the 800mhz version. Its 360. I think this will be closer to 400. Are they any different, better batch or hand picked maybe?

  6. XFX cooler looks better, this is very plastickly. I would wait on the better Toxic edition which will probably be out in a month, with even higher clocks and premium capacitors etc.
