Sapphire HD7950 Dual-X FleX Edition Review (OC)

To test power consumption today we are using a Keithley Integra unit and we measure power consumption from the VGA card inputs, not the system wide drain. We measure results while gaming in Crysis Warhead and record the results.

In such an energy aware climate, AMD are making a big deal out of their new ‘ZeroCore Power’ technology. Many solutions today use power gating, clock gating and memory compression to reduce idle power requirements, but ZeroCore power technology can completely power down the core GPU while the rest of the system remains active.

Very closely matched against the reference card, demanding a few watts less under gaming load.

  1. That is awesome, out of my price league, but fleX rocks.

  2. They make great cards. only problem i can see with this card will be the price, fleX normally ads £30 to the price. it might end up around £380, which is only £20-30 less than the cheapest 7970’s.

  3. Nice looking card. I reckon it will cost closer to 400

  4. I d love this card? Competition anyone? 🙂

  5. This system wouldnt cost that much. Three 24 inch screens around 450 total. System about 1500.

    Really kick ass. But i might prefer the 670 from asus.

  6. Very impressive. I want a third screen this year

  7. I like their new coolers,mthey are very quiet
