HIS Announces HD 7970 IceQ X² GHz Edition

You may remember back at Computex, we met up with HIS as did other media to check out some world-record breaking attempts as well as unveiling some new models including the HD 7970 IceQ X² but HIS have given the card a bit of an update now with the newer 7970 GHZ edition GPU core. 


Adding technologies such as PowerTune with Boost is one thing, but the speeds have also improved from 925MHz core to 1000MHz and a 1050MHz boost speed and the memory has also increased from 5500MHz to 6000MHz Effective.

In terms of specs, the card comes equipped with 3GB of GDDR5 memory utilising a 384-bit memory interface.

In terms of style and design, the cooler that the original IceQ X² included is kept and pricing should remain the same as the original around $450 USD.
