For overclocking today we relied on Catalyst Control Center.
Considering the card is supplied in such a high clock state out of the box, the final overclock speeds are healthy. We managed to push the core to 1,160mhz and the memory to 1,500mhz (6Gbps effective).
The final score of 9,295 points is not to be underestimated. At these clock speeds, the card actually matches the GTX590 at reference clocks.
Wow thats a great product, surprised how well it handles.
What is their warranty support like though? Powercolor had a terrible coverage plan in the UK.
I dont think it looks that bad. anyway who looks at a video card anyway, once its installed, its out of sight, right?
Wow im buying this, ive waited for a while now for a good 7970 with quality cooler. none in stock yet, another week before its available 🙁 damn you kitguru for getting my hopes up.
Well some difference there is… as i checked warranty times from one shop for some 7970 cards. MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte offering 3 years on the ones i checked. XFX 2 years and this one has 1 year. I bought this one anyway.
