ATI Radeon HD 4770 Review

Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. (”High Altitude Warfare eXperimental squadron”) is an aerial warfare video game developed by Ubisoft Romania and published by Ubisoft.  Players have the opportunity to take the throttle of over 50 famous aircraft and fly them over real world locations and cities in photo-realistic environments created with satellite data. This game is a more of an arcade take on flying, with the aircraft able to do drifts in mid air like a car does on the road. The controls are easy with the aircraft handling more like a car but it is an immensely fun game.

Settings Used:

HAWX is able to take advantage of DX10.1 features on AMD cards. And we see that it makes almost a 10 FPS difference in average FPS.  We see the HD 4770 match GTS 250 without using DX10.1 here. Once we switch to DX10.1, GTS 250 is left in the dust.
