Instead Sapphire had opted to install a new cooler on the card. Checking out the Sapphire website, though, it was nice to see that the model had something different going on outside of just the extra bundle. For starters, when I got the card I didn't even think I'd be reviewing it because it was going to be nothing more than a HD 6950 we've tested with Dirt 3 included. I find myself pleasantly surprised with what Sapphire is offering here today. When you throw in the HDMI cable and Dirt 3, though, it's even more attractive. Priced at $269 US, it's good from a performance stand point. Overall value on the Sapphire HD 6950 Dirt 3 Edition is strong. TVR numbers are rounded to the nearest whole number 100.3 will be 100 100.8 will be 101 and 100.5 will be rounded down to 100. In the event you want to find the TVR rating yourself based on the current price, all you have to do is simply divide the TPR number by the list price. $ price that the card is based off will be included next to the name of the model. As with our TPR graph, the amount of video cards on the list will grow over time and the price of the model won't change from what it was when first reviewed. In the event we can't source a price from either, the product will not receive a TVR rating. In the event the card isn't listed, it will be based on the U.S.
The price of the video card is based on the list price of the model on. The TVR graph is the TPR score divided by the price of the video card. Performance on a whole is good and performs as you'd expect with the slight overclock we gave the card using the AMD Overdrive feature. Art director and character designer Daigo Ikeno, who previously worked on Street Fighter III 3rd Strike, opted for non-photorealistic rendering to give them a hand-drawn look, with visual effects accented in calligraphic strokes, ink smudges and ink sprays during the fights.
However, there are a couple of key differences. The traditional six-button control scheme returns, with new features and special moves integrated into the input system, mixing classic gameplay with additional innovations.Īll the characters and environments in Street Fighter IV are rendered as 3D models with polygons, similar to the Street Fighter EX sub-series Capcom produced with Arika. A new system called "Focus Attacks" ("Saving Attack" for the Japanese version) has been introduced, as well as Ultra moves.
Producer Yoshinori Ono has stated that he wanted to keep the game closer to Street Fighter II. While Street Fighter IV features models and backgrounds rendered in 3D, the gameplay remains on a traditional 2D plane, with the camera having freedom to move in 3D at certain times during fights, for dramatic effect. In Russia, an air force squadron led by Colonel Denisov and Captain Dmitri Sokov engages separatist aircraft but is ordered to retreat from the region after numerous Russian military installations have been attacked. In Scotland, Royal Navy Pilot Colin Munro encounters an unidentified passenger aircraft that explodes from an on-board bomb when undergoing training exercise. Air Force, and a Ghost Recon squad executes an operation to rescue Crenshaw. A joint strike force composed of the U.S. After halting an insurgent attack, a volley of missiles is fired at the Air Force base that Crenshaw was stationed at, with one of the missiles disabling Crenshaw's aircraft, resulting Crenshaw being in enemy captivity. The game begins with Colonel David Crenshaw participating in a routine patrol mission in the Middle East. The game is the sequel to Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X., released in 2009. 2 is an arcade-style flight action game developed by Ubisoft Romania and published by Ubisoft. Instead, though, we've got a new cooler on hand that looks like it will hit the spot.īefore we take a closer look at the card, though, let's first get into the package to see what exactly Sapphire is offering then we'll look at the card, specifications and of course get into the benchmark side of things to see how the card performs. While most companies have just added the bundle to the package, Sapphire has instead chosen to create a "Dirt 3" Edition of the card to coincide with the release.Īt first I thought the "Dirt 3" Edition was just going to be the same HD 6950 we've seen from Sapphire before, but with the inclusion of Dirt 3. So with the release of another high profile game for AMD, we've seen their partners begin to bundle the game in the form of keys with their video cards. While maybe not quite as big as the second one which saw the implementation of DirectX 11, one would argue that this one could be even bigger because of the rave reviews the game has received, making it not only a game that looks good, but also a game that's good to play. Like the previous Dirt game, Dirt 2, the latest iteration from Codemasters, Dirt 3, is another big release for AMD.
