AMD announced the flagship installment of ATI Radeon HD 5970, claimed to be the fastest card ever created.
The new ultra high-end model joins a growing list of graphics cards to fully support Microsoft DirectX 11 technology and ATI Eyefinity multi-display technology.
Designed to support the most demanding PC games at ultra-high resolutions and image quality settings, the ATI Radeon HD 5970 has unlocked overclocking potential, granting access to every bit of power the card has to offer through ATI Overdrive technology.
Now shipping from retailers and available in the channel, the ATI Radeon HD 5970 also launches in new Alienware Area-51, Area-51 ALX and Aurora desktop PCs.
The overclocking capabilities of the ATI Radeon HD 5970 are enabled by the unique design of the card, which features advanced fan and vapor chamber technologies and a fully-vented exhaust to keep the card cool and ensure overclocking headroom using ATI Overdrive technology.2.
The combination of AMD Phenom II processors, AMD 7-Series chipsets, and ATI Radeon HD graphics deliver comprehensive tuning, entertainment, and value.
Delivering full-fledged performance when needed, the ATI Radeon HD 5970 also leads in power efficiency by automatically powering down unused GPU resources when not in use, resulting in idle desktop power consumption as low as 42 watts, the company claimed.
The ATI Radeon HD 5970 is supported by a wide range of add-in-board companies, including ASK, Asus, Club 3D, Diamond, Gigabyte, High Tech, MSI, Sapphire, Tul/Power Color, Visiontek and XFX.
To conclude a series of contests created to celebrate AMD's 40th anniversary year, AMD announced the third and final contest for AMD fans and supporters. Fans of AMD on Facebook will be able to enter to win one of 10 Microsoft Xbox 360s or one of 10 Wiis from Nintendo. One gaming system will be given away every weekday for four weeks.
