Gigabyte's Radeon HD 5870 SOC is not 'just' a pre-overclocked card,

they are really serious about it. At default this card comes clocked

at a 950 MHz core and the memory is purring steady at 5000 MHz, so

that's another 100 MHz on that core and another 200 MHz on the

memory. We have seen faster clocked models from HIS, MSI, PowerColor,

ASUS and now

 

Gigabyte is releasing an overclocked Radeon HD 5870 as well. Gigabyte

did it properly I can already state, they overhauled the PCB, used

first rate components, changed the cooling solution and badabing

badaboom... there it is. The Radeon HD 5870 SOC edition graphics

card.
