Graphic tests: Resident Evil 5, The Last Renmant

Resident Evil 5

Resident Evil 5, known in Japan as Biohazard 5, is a game of survival horror genre, and is the eighth installment of the main Resident Evil games, is released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. The game, developed and published by Capcom is set eleven years after the Raccoon City disaster, which occurred in 1998, and five after the adventure of Leon S. Kennedy in Spain, which took place in 2004. In 2009, Chris Redfield, former STARS member of special team, he joined a company that fights against bioterrorism, called BSAA Is sent into the heart of Africa, specifically in the region of Kijuju, to investigate a mysterious threat of bioterrorism. Li made ​​the acquaintance of a girl, Sheva Alomar, member of the African branch of the BSAA The two soon discover the horrors of the place: the natives of Kijuju have been infected by a mysterious parasite, which sentenced them to remain in a permanent state of murderous rage. The two agents B.S.A.A. then deal with the hordes of enemies, called Majini, looking at the same time to prevent the spread of the parasite. At the same time Albert Wesker, a former captain of STARS and nemesis of Chris, he went to Africa to work with Excella Gionne, the owner of the pharmaceutical company Tricell. Wesker, helped by a mysterious hooded woman who does the dirty work for him, trying to counter the plans of the BSAA, intent on world domination.

Whether using the DirectX 9 or the DirectX 10 the AMD A8-3850 integrated GPU gives very high results, in both cases exceeding 30 frames at 1680x1050, and even 40 frames at 1280x1024.

The gap with the Intel solutions is very pronounced, in fact, are almost double the performance in this case.

THE LAST RENMANT

The last born created by Square-Enix will allow the player to take the role of Rush Sykes, an eighteen year old boy waiting in spasmodic (with sister) back home to his parents, famous researchers now for years engaged in a secret project. Shortly thereafter, however, Irina (her sister) is kidnapped by shady characters who will leave unspecified what the poor Rush, who meanwhile discovered to possess a power in him, with a handful of flies. It will be the search of the beloved sister, embryonic opening words of the whole adventure, to accompany the young hero on a journey which will meet all kinds of beings, sometimes friendly and sincere at times subtle and wicked. As with any self-respecting fantasy tale characters and supporting actors are bound together, in this case by the Remnant, powerful and ancient artifact capable of turning-not without a high price to pay in-arms unspeakable power when connected to a living being after the necessary capacity.

Also in this case, the AMD HD 6550D has the highest result with the RAMs set at 1866MHz. In second place we find the Radeon HD 6450 with a gap of about 4 frames at a resolution of 1680x1050. As in the previous benches Intel solutions are revealed much less efficient.

GPU Test Considerations

From the tests we noticed that the AMD A8-3850 integrated solution is much more powerful than other solutions on the market until now. With these performances we are able not only to use our PC for multimedia purposes, but also to entertain ourselves with some games. The tests results also show that the impact of the frequency of the RAM is very high, pointing out that in many cases constitute the bottleneck for graphics performance. We therefore recommend the purchase of good RAM to all those who want to get good gaming performance from this APU.
