XFX HD6950 1GB Overclocked Edition Review

Testing:

Unigine Heaven Benchmark 2.0 is a DirectX 11 GPU benchmark based on the Unigine engine. What sets the Heaven Benchmark apart is the addition of hardware tessellation, available in three modes — Moderate, Normal and Extreme. Although tessellation requires a video card with DirectX 11 support and Windows Vista/7, the Heaven Benchmark also supports DirectX 9, DirectX 10 and OpenGL. Visually, it features beautiful floating islands that contain a tiny village and extremely detailed architecture.

Settings:

• 4xAA
• 16xAF
• Shaders = High
• Tesselation = Normal
• Measurement = FPS

Not a whole lot to see here, fairly standard-issue results.
