S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear Sky is a very eerie game. The Zone is a huge abandoned territory, with twenty-year-old dilapidated buildings, overgrown with forests and anomalous vegetation. It is a territory with deserted surface and underground research facilities, neglected military bases and testing grounds for new technologies. The radioactive land is covered with sores of burned out soil, poisonous fogs, and deadly gravitational anomalies. It is a world of a terrible anthropogenic disaster, and in the center of this hell sit the remains of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant.
The in-game Zone is a reconstruction of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant and the 30-kilometer Exclusion Zone around it. Moving along the storyline, the player will visit such places as the Swamps, the Red Forest, the Limansk city and, of course, the sarcophagus of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. Many in-game locations have real prototypes.
The GTX580 is a great choice to power this demanding Direct X 11 title, holding the frame rates at 34 or above at all times. An average result of 50 fps indicates the power on tap.
I saw this at OCUK a while ago, over £400 for a video card. ouch.
Looks great, but I need a new job. my 460 will have to last a while longer
Their cards are great, they normally take a lot longer to get to retail, same with ASUS. its down to their engineering teams who make the mobos. always can do more than the main players we associate such as powercolor, evga etc.
Id rather have one of these than the hideous 590./ what a dogs dinner that card was.
I bet tho if MSI made a 590 they wuold get the power regulation wright.
Wicked card, love it
two of these in SLI for folding @ home = perfection.
WEll it certainly shows that Nvidia should have got MSI to built their GTX590 instead of skimping on the power delivery system.
Asus and MSI rock, I do think its best actually waiting for a few months for these guys to release the cards, rather than jump onboard earlier with a poorer version.
the power on these cards is so important. its becoming more noticeable now.
Can kitguru find out if they are making a GTX590 with enhanced power components? id love an 18 phase 590. ive held off buying one due to the recall and problems. Thank god I didnt have the money at the time or id be the not so proud owner of a turkey now.
Excellent, now you need to review their new one !
WOuldnt mind one of these myself, I can only dream !
