The HD 6770 goes silent
Ryan Martin / 14 years ago
The HD 6770 card was released recently to add variety to the new 6 series generation of AMD cards with the HD 6770 being essentially a slightly modified and rebranded 5 series card. Due to the improved modifications on this card it is now possible for the HD 6770 to run with a completely passive cooler.
The card although being uniquely quiet is currently only available in Japan and retails at around $170-180 which is a lot more than the $130 price for a standard HD 6770. The card is slightly faster than a HD 5770 so therefore is suitable for an entry level gaming system as it offers fantastic performance especially for a completely silent card.
The card is expected to be part of a wider range of silent cards being developed by Gigabyte.
