AMD’s Radeon HD 6670 & Radeon HD 6570: Two’s Company, Sub-$100’s A Crowd

HAWX

Ubisoft’s 2008 aerial action game is one of the less demanding games in our benchmark suite, particularly for the latest generation of cards. However it’s fairly unique in that it’s one of the few flying games of any kind that comes with a proper benchmark.

As one of our less demanding games, HAWX is the first title in our test suite that’s playable at 1680 with the 6670. At 46fps you may want to turn off anti-aliasing to ensure smooth performance, but it should be doable. In this case the 6670 has a 9% lead over the 5670, while the 5670 in turn still has 5% on the 6570. However all of these cards are still well behind the likes of the GTS 450 and Radeon HD 5770.

Meanwhile at 1280 the story is much the same. Even without sacrificing anything beyond resolution and AA a number of cards crack 60fps, including both Turks cards.
