GIGABYTE's HD 6870 Super Overclock Video Card Reviewed

"The GIGABYTE HD 6870 Super Overclock is GIGABYTE's elite offering for those looking to pick up an overclocking friendly Radeon HD 6870. GIGABYTE has even started the process for you and boosted the GPU frequency by 50MHz and the memory frequency by 50MHz. This represents a decent boost these days when some companies are labeling video cards "Overclocked" with a mere 10MHz GPU increase and the memory being left a reference frequencies. Kudos to GIGABYTE for giving us higher core and memory frequencies."

If you're looking for a fast, overclocked video card, the latest and greatest from AMD is reviewed in extreme detail over on HardOCP. As much as I like having a powerful video card in my system, what I don't like is the noise that often comes with having that power. The good news is that this card is no louder than the reference design - but the review doesn't explain exactly how loud that is...
