This Radeon R9 270 Club3D 14Series Edition Crossfire graphics card is considered budget with poor modern game performance when playing anything more demanding than indie game requirements.

DirectX 11 gaming system requirements will be met by this gpu.

Here is a quick game performance synopsis for the AAA games played in 2023. In particular we focus on how well the Radeon R9 270 Club3D 14Series Edition Crossfire runs at Ultra graphics settings and what frames per second it is getting at 1080p, 1440p and 4K monitor resolutions. Of the 1000 most demanding recommended specs found in game requirements today, this gpu is more powerful than the graphics requirement of 300 games in todays list.

The 1080p FPS on Ultra for the Radeon R9 270 Club3D 14Series Edition Crossfire shows us that FIFA 22 is getting a strong result of 83 FPS, and then we are seeing Battlefield 2042 returning a weak 1 FPS while another game on our list is the Dying Light 2 which is getting 20 frames per second at Ultra 1080p.

One of the growing popular screen resolutions for PC gaming is the wider 1440p. So we wanted to see how well the Radeon R9 270 Club3D 14Series Edition Crossfire performed at 1440p by taking a look at some of the current popular games. First we looked at Battlefield 2042 and saw it deliver weak frames per second across the following graphics settings - Low: 1 FPS, Medium: 1 FPS, High: 1 FPS and Ultra: 0 FPS. We then checked the performance on Dying Light 2 to see if that runs well. It was weak with a 15 FPS at Ultra 1440p. In summary we feel the Radeon R9 270 Club3D 14Series Edition Crossfire running at 1440p is ok at playing most games but might need to have the graphics settings lowered to medium preset in some cases.
