Diamond Radeon HD 6770 XOC Video Card Review

Unigine Heaven 2.5

The ‘Heaven’ benchmark that uses the Unigine easily shows off the full potential of DirectX 11 graphics cards. It reveals the enchanting magic of floating islands with a tiny village hidden in the cloudy skies. With the interactive mode emerging, experience of exploring the intricate world is within reach. Through its advanced renderer, Unigine is one of the first to set precedence in showcasing the art assets with tessellation, bringing compelling visual finesse, utilizing the technology to the full extent and exhibiting the possibilities of enriching 3D gaming. The distinguishing feature of the benchmark is a hardware tessellation that is a scalable technology aimed for automatic subdivision of polygons into smaller and finer pieces so that developers can gain a more detailed look of their games almost free of charge in terms of performance. Thanks to this procedure, the elaboration of the rendered image finally approaches the boundary of veridical visual perception: the virtual reality transcends conjured by your hand.

We ran the Heaven v2.5 benchmark that just recently out with VSync turned disabled, but with 8x AA and 16x AF enabled to check out system performance. We ran the benchmark at 1920×1080 and 1280×1024 to see how the benchmark ran at some different monitor resolutions. It should be noted that we ran the new extreme tessellation mode on this benchmark. These are the toughest settings that you can run on this benchmark, so it should really put the hurt on any graphics card.

Benchmark Results: The Diamond Radeon HD 6770 XOC Video Card had a hard time with the Heaven benchmark and I am sure if I had run the benchmark at lower settings the Diamond Radeon HD 6770 XOC Video Card would have performed just fine. But thats not what these reviews are about. We want to punish the video cards to see what they will do under stress and as far as I am concerned the Diamond Radeon HD 6770 XOC Video Card did alright, around 6 FPS behind the card above it.
