So, pictures then. Below, you can see the Radeon HD 7950, this is a 3GB model. We expect the product to retail for roughly 365 EUR or 400 USD, we hope prices will level in a few weeks but that will depend on availability versus volume.
Above, the HIS bundle. You will receive the card, Crossfire bridge and DVI to DSUB converter next to the driver CD and small manual.
Overall a dark/blue looking card is what you may expect from the HIS IceQX. The 4.3 Billion transistor encounting 28nm Tahiti PRO based core is tied to a whopping 3GB memory. The Turbo editions of the card are clocked at a 900 MHz core frequency and the GDDR5 memory runs at 5 Gbps (effective data rate as GDDR5 has a quad data-rate, so effectively that quadruples that number).
Here we can see the backside, the card will fit pretty much any chassis as it's 27cm in length. The backside of the PCB shows a very non-complex design, that's typically a very good sign. The PCB definitely differs from the R7970 design and is a hint smaller.
