HIS HD6770 IceQ X Turbo Crossfire Review

Test Setup

We’re testing the HIS as both a single card and in Crossfire today. As well as our standard battery of tests we’ve got a few just to see how well the cards scale as well. Hopefully the multiple Catalyst updates since the original launch of the HD5770 will enable our HD6770 IceQ’s to surprise us.

Alien vs Predator

With the IceQ coming in at around £100 we’re obviously not expecting our single card to give blistering performance, but still 30 FPS at these high settings isn’t bad. The real surprise is the Crossfire setup being faster than a GTX580. Half the price, equal performance. Exactly what we like to see.
