[ Benchmarks: Aliens vs. Predator, Battlefield 3 ]

The Aliens vs. Predator results were not that exciting as the HIS Radeon HD 7870 IceQ Turbo was just 1-2fps faster than a standard card depending on resolution. Therefore at 2560x1600 it was still 18% slower than the Radeon HD 7950. The Battlefield 3 results saw the HIS Radeon HD 7870 IceQ Turbo provide 2fps extra when compared to the AMD reference card. This allowed the HIS card to match the GeForce GTX 580 at 2560x1600 and despite seeing a 6% performance increase we are not sure how many gamers will notice the extra 2fps.

I was seriously looking at buying a 7950 next week but this thing is so similar performance wise and looks so cool I might get one instead. what would have been perfect is if you had of reviewed this as well. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161407
