TestSeek's Expert Reviews Summary
Staff at TestSeek has read all the expert reviews (so you don't have to) for this product and written a summary of what the editors think about the product.
AMD 6970 has come to the world to figh the NVIDIA GTX 570 and it succeeds quite well in this task. However the new AMD 6970 graphics card doesn't quite reach up to the absolute top performers. This may however change with new drivers coming out in the future. What the editors like is the relative low power consumption and the lower-than-usual noise levels (except for when in high load). Another positive feature is the possibility to connect multiple cards (more than two) via CrossFire. That one can easily revert to the standard frequencies is also good so that potential problems with overclocked cards can be easiliy fixed.
The editors liked
2GB Memory
Cooling features
Strong performance/watt
The editors didn't like
Noisy at higher performance levels
Overclocking doesn't mean real world benefits
Expensive
TestSeek's Conclusion
The AMD HD 6970 card brings many new cool things to the table; mainly its power tuning technology. The performance is very high although not yet as good as the top performing graphics cards but this may be due to the early drivers which was used in the tests.

Abstract: Как многие из вас знают, HD 6990 была выпущена раньше, чем конкурирующая модель. Официальный анонс состоялся аж 8-го марта. Однако в продаже эти видеокарты долгое время не появлялись. Теперь уже эта ситуация исправилась, и мы, с помощью магазина OLDI, пол...
Abstract: Auf technischer Ebene hat AMD nicht nur den Takt der GPU gesenkt, sondern auch einige Elemente auf dem Die deaktiviert. So wurde die Anzahl der 4D-Shader-Einheiten auf 352 reduziert. Daher arbeiten auf dem Cayman-Pro-Chip nur 1408 Stream-Prozessoren beziehungsweise ALUs. Obwohl die Textureinheiten von 96 auf 88 abgespeckt wurden, bleibt die Menge der ROPs gleich....

The AMD Radeon HD6970 is a disappointment when you look at the initial performance numbers. The card runs as hot as the GTX580, consumes as much power as the GTX570 and performs on the same level, which really shouldn’t be what the flagship card aspire...
