Introducing AMD’s “Turks” – HD 6670 and HD 6570
Lost Planet 2
Lost Planet 2 is the sequel to Lost Planet: Extreme Condition and is also made by Capcom. The events take place ten years after the first game and on the same, now thawed, EDN III. The PC version was released on October 12, 2010 and it runs on the MT-Framework 2.0 engine; an updated version of the engine used in several Capcom games. Campaign mode can have up to 4 players working together over the Internet. Lost Planet 2 allows players to create and customize their own characters which will allow them to unlock more things after leveling up and downloading content.
We are using the retail game’s built-in benchmark in DX11 with maximum settings. As the game is quite demanding, we first test at 1920×1200 resolution with 4xAA.
Let’s test at 1680×1050 and with 4xAA.
Now at 1680×1050 but with no AA.
Our settings are still too demanding although the GTS 450 is much faster than the HD 6670 although we would not play this game in DX11 with our target cards.
great review mark! Huge piles of data, thats what i love about the abt. I totally agree with your conclusion which is spot on. Given the gts450 and hd5770 may not be around for much longer these cards should be a great option in the future but for now there are some really nice price/performance options in the same bracket and they just dont shine through them. In time they may fall in place when some of these killer deals from the last generation slowly slip out of the picture.
