HIS Radeon 6950 review

Was speaking to Gibbo earlier who said we should post our review up on here when ready, so will be doing that at 5:01am when the embargo lifts.

We've made an 11 page written review with a fair old few photos and benchmarks of 3DMark 11, Heaven 2.1, Crysis Warhead, Dirt 2 and Mafia 2 including an unboxing video and video review showing how big the card is etc...

So check back here at 5:01 when i'll put the links up, but in the meantime, chuck over your questions and when the NDA lifts, i'll try and answer as many as i can.

If you are looking at purchasing one of these cards, be sure to look here - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/productlist.php?groupid=701&catid=56&subid=1752

Gibbo has informed us all that OcUK have got hundreds in stock so get buying and hope the review sway's your mind to buying one from OcUK.

Can't sleep yet :P we're still taking pictures of loads of products we've got left to review.

Just finished off the 6950 review and just uploading the video segments to YouTube as we do videos to show the product in a 3D view too :)

Was thinking about going to sleep for 30 minutes and waking up ready to publish it all etc...

It's a HIS 6950 we've got, but am waiting on an Asus 6950 to arrive so we can CrossFire them :)

nice work! will be great to see what they can do in Xfire :)

30 min power nap is most likely the way forward lol.....good luck!
 
Great review mate looks like a very good card and the are the first out there congtrats.

Thanks, was a pleasure to write about and test to be honest.

enjoyed review, you state mafia 2 is an older game though, when its not, typo?

Compared to the likes of some games, it does use older technology etc...

We are hoping to update our testing games etc.... very soon with the addition of Metro 2033 and Just Cause 2 possible.

Should put your charts in order of performance and not all mixed up as it is, and drop the low end cards.

should also get a ban for promoting company...
