XFX HD7850 Black Edition Review

Allan 'Zardon' Campbell March 28, 2012 Featured Announcement, Graphics

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.

The XFX HD7850 Black Edition manages to outperform the HD6970, by a single frame per second with this engine.

    Another winner from XFX, great clock speeds out of the box as author says.

    impressive, but it is a bit expensive, no? I would expect to pay £200 but no more for a 7850?

    I want to see your review of the GTX680, are you not reviewing it Zardon?

    Hi Robert, our sample had a hardware problem (fan issue) and we are in the process of reviewing the replacement. Just one of those things.
