The rest of our tests are recorded with every detail setting maxed out, including shadows. Does this affect the cards we've already tested, even at 1680x1050?

All of these discrete GPUs maintain more than 30 FPS.

Charting frame rates over time shows that playing at more than 30 FPS is only a worry for the Radeon HD 6450.

Although our subjective analysis doesn't raise any red flags, AMD's Radeon 6670 DDR3 does exceed 15 ms when we filter out the 95th percentile. The Radeon HD 6450's variance is much more than that. This is particularly problematic in light of the fact that we've seen side-by-side comparisons demonstrating as little as 5 ms variance causing significant issues with smoothness. Naturally, then, we wouldn't recommend running the 6450 at LoL's top detail settings.

LoL may not be the prettiest game out there, but it is a lot of fun.
Also, no love for Heroes of Newerth?

This is one of those games when the smallest stutter can grind your bones to dust.
So you REALLY want a near-constant 60FPS for this one.
Anypony disagree???
U got the chart wrong? is the 210 and 6450 swiched ?
[EDITOR: Yes, we got it mixed up. Thanks for the note, fixed! - Don]
It would have been more interesting to see it tested on the oldest possible computers.
I suppose this time CPU latency numbers don't matter that much since it's such a light load. But I still want to take this opportunity to ask for them in the future articles when there is a heavier load and differences between FPS scores.
By the way, interesting how the iGPUs perform against faster Radeon cards in latency measurements. Would you add the desktop chips for the next review alongside the mobile?
Shame on all of you for supporting the pay to win model. You are going to ruin gaming, and your bank accounts.
