AMD Radeon HD 7970 review | Hardware.Info Nederland

Hey, plz pay attention on the performance boost of HD 7970 with i7 965 to HD 7970 with i7 3960X. So, it needs better CPU too to boost performance

In some games it delivers good performance boost, but in some games it only manages to improve itself by a few margin over HD 6970. Overall it's faster than GTX 580 & wait for good driver support to mature itself & this card OC like hell

Good show by AMD. Priced higher than expected, but expect situation to change once Kepler arrives.

Good enough performance increase for Radeon 5xxx owners to consider an upgrade..

Clearly better than the 580 (in 80% or more cases) And yes,the fact about a good cpu fiving better frame rates seems to be true as well going by the benchmarks .

Can't complain about the price. Yields are low and AMD need to recoup money. 20-30% faster than GTX 580 in 30% smaller die size? Very good gain.

This card is made for eyeinfinity.

AMD Radeon HD 7970 3GB Video Card Review - Final Thoughts and Conclusions - Legit Reviews - was able to OC upto 1165 Mhz Core and 1625 Mhz memory.

Actually the price is good for 6900 owners on a single monitor. Any sort of temptation to upgrade will go out of mind.

 

[MegaMind]

I guess Price in India ~ 35K

Jaw-dropping numbers at Eyefinity res!

AMD Radeon HD 7970 3GB Video Card Review - Final Thoughts and Conclusions - Legit Reviews - was able to OC upto 1165 Mhz Core and 1625 Mhz memory.

More importantly performance improves almost proportionately with increase in clocks. And talking about OC, hopefully someone will try these settings:-
