news · January 9, 2012

A news post would be great.

OCC has published a review on the *Sapphire HD 7970 3GB*

Here is a quote from the review:

Quote:

"Reaching 1125Mhz on the core with just a move of a slider required no

extra voltage including the power tune voltage that is available in the

CCC. Maxing out the memory clocks was just as uneventful with the CCC limit

of 1575Mhz in place. These clock speeds show that there is at least 200Mhz

of headroom on both the GPU cores and on the GDDR5 memory. Pretty

significant upswings on both counts. Without extra voltage needs the

temperatures of the GPU stayed consistent. By manually adjusting the fan

speed to 100% the load temperature peaked at only 57C when overclocked. I

have to say I am looking forward to either BIOS or software utilities to

get rid of the limits in the CCC to see where this card will go."
