3DMark 11
3DMark 11 is the latest offering from Futuremark, taking full advantage of DirectX 11 by utilising tessellation features and volumetric lighting. It takes your graphics and CPU hardware to the edge to simulate the most extreme conditions whilst working as a stand point to compare results with other users online.

- Preset: Extreme
- AF: 16x
Looking at the above chart, we can see the positition of this card in the market place is where we expected it to be. The results were far from fantastic but upon using the extreme preset to show you a clear comparison, this figure could be improved by hiking down the AF quality settings.
That's not bad, good for a HTPC, but I don't think you should be expecting it to do eyefinity at that price…
Good review, sounds good for those on a budget who will have a lower res monitor screen. There are so many cards on the market these days is very hard to choose between them.
Agreed. So many cards to pick from these days… I was fortunate to win a Gigabyte HD 5830 video card from a contest this month: GIGABYTE – Graphics Card – ATI – PCI Express Solution – Radeon HD 5000 series – GV-R583UD-1GDI know it's a much older model and needs lots of juice to run but it's free and more than I could ask for… considering I'm not a hardcore gamer. I'm one step closer to completing more first ever build with this card 🙂
i know sapphire's blue PCB is their trademark thing, but i wish everybody would just switch to black PCB's. makes things look so much better!
I have one of these and everything this guy says is true , it is fantastic value for money.
