We used the Adrenaline Sleeping Dogs Benchmark tool to benchmark this game title to make sure the benchmarking was consistent. We tested with ‘High’ quality setting at 1280×1024 and 1920×1024 resolutions.

Benchmark Results: The AMD Radeon HD 8790M w/ GCN was able to run Sleeping Dogs at 1920×1080 with medium image quality settings with no problems at all. The gameplay was smooth and everything looked great! The AMD Radeon HD 7690M was only able to average 18.8 FPS with the same settings and gameplay was not smooth. The AMD Radeon HD 8790M made playing Sleeping Dogs more enjoyable as the game looked much better.
