A great showing from the XFX HD6850 Black Edition in Resident Evil 5, falling only a couple of frames per second behind the MSI Talon Attack card at 810 core. The XFX BE card manages to outperform the reference clocked HD5850 with this particular engine.
Shit on a stick, thats insane clocks man!
Ohhhh lovely. their modded cooler is good. shame its a tiny bit louder, but we can forgive it with those insane clocks.
ill buy a few of these I think for christmas 😉
First HD6850 over 1ghz, very sexy indeed. XFX are really taking it to Sapphire lately.
Heh, this is the start of extreme solutions. I can predict some amazing overclocks before christmas.
Absolutely stunning card, hope the price isnt much higher though.
I am not that interested in the core clock increases set in the bios, the potential overhead is what I love about the black edition boards. they have been doing this for years really and im stunned they got a 6850 black edition out so early. nice scoop KG.
Its AMD lovin on kitguru 🙂
Have to hand it to XFX< they are showing their worth as a partner for AMD. nvidia must be crying into their cornflakes.
cocks.
oh, this will make a nice christmas present, I just need to persuade the missus to fork out for it. fat chance.
Damn it, I wasn’t expecting this so quick. XFX got the edge on Sapphire.
but for how long? 1.1ghz possible before christmas? I think so.
XFX + AMD = Great Combo
XFX – NVIDIA = All 4 AMD
NVIDIA You Where Stupid To Let XFX Go As A Partner
To all the dumbasses saying Nvidia dropped XFX;
Get your bloody facts right – XFX dropped Nvidia when they made the 400-series cards.
