No problems powering this engine, averaging 85 frames per second, ahead of the reference HD7970 by around 12 frames per second.
Lovely, very nice, and yet again very expensive……… we can only dream!
Wow… so thats £500 for a card with no copper used as a cooling material, and Aluminum used instead,
thats a less ductile material = an inferior cooling solution, using a cheapr material for more money…
MSI really know how to impress – or charge more for using cheaper materials!!!
Good point from muppett, copper might have improved on the results by 1-2 c more.
however, the end result is great as the testing shows.
@muppet:
Actually the Cooler material is copper, but it’s nickel coated, so it doesn’t corrode (very, VERY easy with copper)
Only the fin array is made of Aluminium
I take it 12.3 drivers were used for this test and the other custom 7970’s?
