Features

Graphics Card Interface : PCI Express 2.0

What's Hot

Offers a multi-GPU solution without needing a CrossFire-capable motherboard, improved PCI-Express bridge for faster data exchange, gave a solid performance in most of our benchmarks

What's Not

Sub-par performance in Crysis, power consumption too high

The Final Word

If you’re a stickler for innovation, ATI’s ‘double-or-nothing’ approach is unlikely to tickle your fancy, but it remains a powerful performer. On the other hand, its benchmark results were not as impressive as we would have liked from a top-end graphics card.
