We have uploaded a video with a comparison of a Radeon 9250 PCI and a Radeon HD 6450 (PCI-E to PCI Bridge).

This test Shows a Little game Scene of a game which is currently in development.

Screenshot of the game:


This test is to show what performance boost can bring a Radeon HD card on a Sam440 with PCI bus. A Radeon HD card can increase the performance extreme and is prepared for the upcoming Warp3D drivers and Gallium3D in future.

We have also tested it on a Radeon 5450 PCI Edition and it works also very good (Club 3D PCI Edition), the Card has the same PCI-E to PCI chip.

The Performance boost with compositing stuff is very, very good.

Our Tests (Workbench 1920x1080):
Radeon 9250, PCI:
Windows Mode: at Start: 22 Fps, at End: 39 Fps
Fullscreen: 1920x1080: at Start: 1 Fps, at Ende 14 FpS

Radeon HD 6450 PCI-E (PCI Express to PCI Bridge):
Window Mode: at Start: 74 Fps, at End: 96 Fps
Fullscreen: 1920x1080: at Start: 31 Fps, at End 50 FpS

Note: if the video is not very smooth, then it is a Problem of our recording. In Original it is smooth at least if vSync is activated.

We also want to release this test Scene as soon as possible to test it on your Systems (just make the Scene a Little bit longer).

P.S. We have released Balance Blox now, it is available here:

Best regards and thanks for watching the video!!!

@bennymee

unfortunartely that wasnt possible due to firmware incompatibility with RadeionHD cards...

This is great news. I have been using an adapter with a PCIE bridge for over a year now on my Sam440ep-flex and I have been aware of the graphics power that using a Radeon HD card brings. I have a thread about the subject which has some info in you need any.

A pity, I read it now on the site of HDRlab.

I thought a good hardware adapter would solve the problem.
