XFX Radeon HD 5770 1GB GDDR5 Video Card Review

NVIDIA recently (May 8th) released two tech demo’s for their DirectX11 GPU’s. The Island demo features customizable hardware tessellation and would make a stellar benchmark if it offered a framerate logger, but Fraps can do that just fine so let’s take a look at the settings used.

Island Demo was run in fullscreen mode at 1440×900 as well as 1920×1080, with a dynamic tessellation LOD of 10, and all the other bells and whistles were enabled. The demo opens by default at the same scene with camera movement disabled.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen bench results that linear between cards. There is not much to say aside from mix-crossfire being an awesome technology and the XFX HD 5770 has a clear lead over the reference HD 5750, where the difference is not so significant in other tests.
