I think its fortunate it even got a Bronze award when the whole reason the card was designed doesn't even work, what a stupid card
It works as a 6970, but for that extra for a feature that doesn't work, it makes it a stupid buy and yeah i agree that it was lucky to get bronze.I've already seen a couple of other sites sugarcoat it and say it's a good card even if hydra doesn't work. No it's really not, it's a terrible card that the 6950's kept up with most of the time and are a damn sight cheaper.Hate it when sites can't be honest about it in the fear of upsetting sponsors.
Very lucky to get Bronze award :confused: It looks bad, it sounds bad and its perform bad. Cant agree more with you Andy.
Green team wins
+1 :rolleyes:
