AMD Radeon HD 7970

Today we are checking out the new AMD Radeon HD 7970 graphics card that is targeting the $549 price range. AMD hopes to take down the Nvidia GeForce GTX 580, which is currently the fastest single-GPU graphics card money can buy. In order to do so they have designed a new architecture which uses the 28nm design process...

First let’s talk about the numbers, as we saw some pretty compelling frame rates from the Radeon HD 7970. In the dozen games we tested with, the Radeon HD 7970 was on average 42% faster than the Radeon HD 6970. That’s a mind blowing result when you consider that the Radeon HD 6970 was just 24% faster than the Radeon HD 5870.

Amazing performance. Let's hope Nvidia can give AMD some incentive to make them cheaper :D

Far too expensive for me :( Still the performance is nice but I will have to wait for cheaper models.

Good review. It's fast but not fast enough to justify upgrading from a GF-110.
