worth the wait
good review
clearly see you put time on it, nice review.
Good job.
you look so british.. btw you have a very radiophonic voice, did you consider casting???

Didn’t expect such an in depth review, thanks CUBE.

Great review, you clearly put quite an effort into it. It was fair and at the same time had a clear conclusion on whether the card is worth it or not.
Okay, so we waited over a month for a review without a single benchmark? Or am I missing the a written version somewhere? FPS looks good isn’t enough considering the selling point of such a card is higher fps combined with no microstuttering.
Here are some actual numbers for the people who care:
I7-2600k @ 4.4GHz
GTX580 @ 975MHz
SC2, LOW, Running at 1080p windowed mode, capture mode 1280×720 @ 60fps.
Starcraft 2 baseline bench – 334FPS
Streaming with X-split’s “Screen Capture” – 203FPS
Streaming with X-split using the C985 – 237FPS
SC2, MED, Running at 1080p windowed mode, capture mode 1280×720 @ 60fps.
Starcraft 2 baseline bench – 202FPS
Streaming with X-split’s “Screen capture” – 111FPS
Streaming with X-split using the C985 – 147FPS
