HIS working on a dual GPU HIS Radeon 7970 X2

HIS working on a dual GPU HIS Radeon 7970 X2

HIS will soon release a dual-GPU based Radeon 7970 or 7990 if you want to. Over at Tom’s lab in Germany recently received just such a card a short while ago, and it bears all the markings (literally) of an engineering sample, down to the production number 007. After some back and forth with HIS, during which we provided some feedback and suggested some improvements, our German colleagues just received a revised sample – which they're already hard at work testing. As such, we’re proud to be able to say we are the first site, worldwide, to be able to check out one of these cards in the flesh and talk about its speeds and other specs.

ike TUL’s versions, HIS' new card uses an impressive, massive three slot cooler. The card itself draws its power from a full three 8-pin PCIe power connectors. The main difference compared to the competition is this: The card's two fans cool two separate heatsinks, since each GPU sports its own cooler. This allows the GPUs to run at no less than 1050 MHz, and HIS claims there is still some overclocking headroom left as well. That would make HIS' sample faster than PowerColor's Devil 13, which 'only' reaches 1000 MHz when OC is enabled.

The two GPUs are connected using a Lucidlogix switch, which is a fairly uncommon find. Meanwhile, the memory frequency is cranked up to 1500 MHz –- up from the 1375 MHz AMD specifies for the Radeon HD 7970.

I do and and if they continue to use fans made by Zunshan I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole they're ****e fans that dry out quickly and get noisy and to top it off you cannot
re-lube them trying ends with a broken fan and no way to replace it easily

production number 007.


So if James bonds code name is 007, then the card will be code named James Bond?

Cute. Reeeal cute.

I've used HIS a few times and have always been very pleased with them as a company.

As for this puppy, I really like the sounds of it. Could this be one of the only single PCB Dual GPUs that isn't limited in Overclocking compared to a pair of single PCB GPUs?
