Benchmark: Aliens vs. Predator

The standalone Aliens vs. Predator benchmark uses DX11 features such as hardware tessellation and advanced shadow sampling to draw and animate everyone's favourite xenomorph.

Aliens vs. Predator doesn't paint a particularly pretty picture. The Radeon HD 7770, even in its pre-overclocked Sapphire guise, isn't able to keep up with a Radeon HD 6850 in this title.

What's more of a concern for the PC gamer is that this Ā£140-odd card is only just able to deliver 30 frames per second at a full-HD resolution with medium image quality.
