SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6970 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100311-3L

Transform your gameplay with the SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6970 graphics card. This card is based on cutting-edge architecture and features 1536 stream processors and 96 texture processing units. Clock speeds of 880MHz for the core and 1375Mhz (5.5Gb/sec effective) for the 2GB of GDDR5 memory produce incredible graphics and reality-redefining environment interaction in your favorite DirectX 11 game titles.

This new design has two 90mm fans with thin impellers that can move the same amount of air at 10% lower rotation speeds than conventional fans, keeping the noise level down, and their special dust repelling bearings contribute to high reliability. With the Dual BIOS set to the standard position, dual fans keep this model quiet and up to 25% cooler than the standard model even under full load conditions. With the BIOS switched to the performance setting, the core voltage of the GPU is raised to 1.2V, the fan speed is set to a high performance profile, and the powertune adjustment for overclocking is raised to 50%, maximizing performance of the card by increasing clock speeds either with AMD Overdrive or with SAPPHIRE TriXX up to a ceiling of 1500MHz core, 2000MHz memory.
