XFX FX7850 HD 7850 2GB Graphics Card Review
3DMark 2013
“The new 3DMark includes everything you need to benchmark your hardware. With three all new tests you can bench everything from smartphones and tablets, to notebooks and home PCs, to the latest high-end, multi-GPU gaming desktops. And it’s not just for Windows. With 3DMark you can compare your scores with Android and iOS devices too. It’s the most powerful and flexible 3DMark we’ve ever created.” From Futuremark.com
XFX used to be exclusively a nVidia partner before jumping ship to AMD. They haven’t been partners with AMD/ATi for nearly as long as Sapphire for example. I think they swapped partners about halfway through the HD 4000 series, I remember the last XFX/nVidia card I tested was a GTX 9800.
epic (:
typo page 3, Testing Procedure, “The test the performance of video cards… ” should be “To test …”
thank you!
ur welcome 🙂
You mentioned there’s no point going beyond 1050Mhz core. Why not? bypass the limits and you could squeeze another 100mhz (at least) from that core, no voltage changes needed
I say there is no point because most driver/software loopholes that allow you to circumvent these limits have been shut with updates. If you can find a way around the limit without voiding your warranty then definitely – it’s worth trying to go further but if you can’t I wouldn’t recommend risking your warranty to go further.
