The VisionTek Radeon HD7970 graphics card features 1792 Stream Processors, 3GB of GDDR5 memory, reference frequencies with core/memory clock of 925MHz/1375MHz(data rate of 5500MHz), and it has intelligent TDP management (AMD Power Tune Technology).
We settled in for some overclocking of the GPU and memory and achieved a final overclock of 1120MHz core and 1600MHz memory. That's a 21% increase on the core and 16% on the memory.
The VisionTek Radeon HD7970 graphics card scored 35986 3DMarks (performance) and 17625 (extreme) in 3DMark Vantage. Please note that when it comes to benchmarking top-end cards like Radeon HD 7970, 3DMark Vantage depends too much on the performance of the complete hardware configuration. The Radeon HD7970 graphics card returned a playable score of 55-65fps in Crysis 2, Battlefield 3 and Shogun 2 (at 1920X1080 resolution, AF 16x, AA4x).
At idle the system runs very low in power and temperature terms. The VisionTek Radeon HD7970 graphics card has an impressive power consumption: 24W at idle! The power consumption under full load was 265W. The GPU temperature of the VisionTek Radeon HD7970 graphics card was 102F (39°C) on idle, and when stressed went up to 173F (78 °C). The cooler is better but somewhat louder than the reference one.
If you are in the market for a graphics card that offers a high level of performance if price is not a problem then the VisionTek Radeon HD 7970 would definitely be a good fit for you.
