Club3D HD7870 Royal King 2GB Graphics Card Review

HQV Benchmark 2.0 is an updated version of the original tool and it consists of various video clips and test patterns which are designed to evaluate motion correction, de-interlacing, decoding, noise reduction, detail enhancement and film cadence detection.

There are two versions of the program, standard definition on DVD and high definition on Bluray. As our audience will be concentrating on HD content so will we.

This has a total of 39 video tests which is increased from 23 in the original and the scoring is also up from a total of 130 to 210. As hardware and software gets more complicated, the software has been tuned to make sure we can thoroughly maximise our analysis.

  1. Its a problem when sapphire are constantly pushing new boundaries with their coolers.

  2. I could tell on the first page that the cooler wasnt going to be good. It might work on the hD7850 as its much cooler running.

  3. Its a nice looking little card actually, very neat and the size of the actual PCB.

    Sadly that cooler is never going to work, lok at the size of the aluminum heatsink, its much too small for a start. its more suited to a HD7770.

    Never seen their cards for sale here anyway, first ive read about them, ever.

  4. The cooler does look almost identical to the HD7770 model, I doubt its any different http://www.club-3d.com/index.php/products/reader.en/product/radeon-hd-7770-ghz-edition.html

    its how companies save money between ranges, but it normally works from a higher spec model to a lower spec model, not the other way around

  5. Avoid this card at all costs, I had the royalqueen version and it was so loud I couldnt live with it. I had it returned and got an XFX card, it was so quiet and about 15c cooler.

  6. this info about graphics card is very completly,,tank,s
