PRESS RELEASE
Club 3D proudly presents the Club 3D RadeonTM HD 7870 Eyefinity 6 graphics card, the world's first Radeon HD 7000 series graphics card to feature 6 mini DisplayPort outputs, and harnesses the power to unleash incredible scalability, productivity and immersive HD gaming performance, making it the definitve solution for those who refuse to compromise.
Get ready for the future with 28nm GPU technology, Graphics Core Next Architecture, AMD App Acceleration and support for Ultra HD 4096p resolutions and PCI Express 3.0.
If you expect above average performance of your Graphics card, Club 3D CoolStream High Performance Cooling Technology is just the kind of high performance that you have been looking for.
Club 3D CoolStream features high performance heatpipes that keeps the components cool and outperforms standard cooling solutions. Transferring heat from the center area to each fin, ensuring enhanced heat dissipation. The result is a dramatic increase of performance for your gaming and multimedia experience.
OVERCLOCK
The GigaHertz barrier has been broken. Clocked to a blistering 1GHz, the Club 3D RadeonTM HD 7870 Eyefinity 6 GPU offers more than the world's most advanced graphics: it offers the incredible performance every gamer deserves. The Club 3D RadeonTM HD 7870 Eyefinity 6 graphics card comes standard at 1GHz GPU clock speed with an overclocking headroom at 1.1GHz and Beyond.
NEW FEATURES
EYEFINITY 2.0
EyefinityTM 2.0 Technology features all-new support for Stereo 3D, universal bezel compensation and brand new display configurations which allows the user to configure custom resolutions and the ability to relocate the Windows task bar to an arbitrary screen.
DIGITAL MULTI-POINT AUDIO (DDMA)
The next step in audio output from a graphics card. Traditionally video cards has been able to output audio through the HDMI port and audio has been restricted to to a single device, be it a monitor, HDTV or a receiver.
With DDMA now you can send audio to multiple devices via the DisplayPort combined with the HDMI.
Imagine a video conferencing where each attendee is mapped to a monitor and with DDMA set on each monitor speaker set.
Graphics Core Next (GCN) Architecture and AMD App Acceleration
A revolutionary new architecture. Jump right into GPGPU applications today with Microsoft C++ AMPTM and OpenCLTM for spectacular performance with the GCN architecture. From video editors to Internet browsers, AMD App AccelerationTM is a supercharger for everyday applications. The Club 3D RadeonTM HD 7870 Eyefinity 6 was engineered for the GPU revolution in compute.
ZEROCORE POWER
AMD is introducing with the Southern Islands chipset their long idle power saving technology. Now the graphics card can turn off most of its functional units of the GPU, when they are unused, leaving only the PCI Express bus and other components active. This as a result, reduce the power consumption from 15W at idle to under 3W in long idle, a power level low enough that ZeroCore Power shuts off the fan as there is no heat generated further saving energy.
ZeroCore Power will put CrossFireTM grapics cards in ZCP when not in use.
AMD HD3D
AMD HD3DTM is a technology designed to enable stereoscopic 3D support in games, movies and/or photos. Additional hardware (e.g., 3D-enabled panels, 3D-enabled glasses/emitter, Blu-ray 3D drive) and/or software (e.g., Blu-ray 3D discs, 3D middleware, games) are required for the enablement of stereoscopic 3D. Not all features may be supported on all components or systems-check with your component or system manufacturer for specific model capabilities and supported technologies. AMD HD3DTM technology is enabled on AMD RadeonTM HD 7000 Series GPUs and above using Catalyst 12 or later.
PCI EXPRESS 3.0
4 years after the introduction of PCI-E 2.0, the all new PCI-E 3.0 specification is now introduced. Providing 1GB/sec per lane bidirectional, which for a X16 device means 16 GB/sec, doubling 8 GB/sec on the previous generation.
FAST HDMI technology
With the introduction of the HD 6000 Series, HDMI 1.4a implementation allows the graphics card to enable Stereo 3D on HDTVs or monitor displays, this same feature is also found on the new HD 7870. Now with the introduction of HDMI support for 4K x 2K displays, the HD 7870 is now able to run 4K x 2K displays (max resolution 4096x3112) over HDMI along with being able to support 1080p Stereo 3D at 120fps (60Hz/eye), with the current standard set at 48fps (24Hz/eye).
AMD CrossFireXTM multi-GPU technology
AMD CrossFireXTM technology allows you to expand your system's graphics capabilities. AMD CrossFireXTM technology is the ultimate multi-GPU performance gaming platform. Unlocking game-dominating power, AMD CrossFireXTM harnesses the power of two or more discrete graphics cards working in parallel to dramatically improve gaming performance. With Club 3D RadeonTM HD graphics cards ready for practically every budget and the flexibility to combine two GPUs, AMD CrossFireXTM is the perfect multi-GPU solution for those who demand the best.
