Mainboard and graphics card maker MSI recently launched the R7870 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC and R7850 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC graphics cards equipped with AMD's latest 28 nm HD 7800 GPU.
The MSI R7870/R7850 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC features the Twin Frozr III cooling module. The Propeller Blade technology features special airflow channels on the edge of the fan blades to increase airflow by 20% compared to conventional designs and reduce noise as well.
Combined with MSI's SuperPipe technology and large cooling fins, the GPU core of the R7870 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC graphics card is 15°C lower than the reference design and operating noise is reduced by 9dB to less than 30dB. MSI said this combination of outright performance and ultra-quiet operation is proof that its products can provide gaming enthusiasts with the coolest and quietest user experience.
The R7870 Twin Frozr 2GD5/OC graphics card supports GPU core voltage adjustment technology that can be used with the Afterburner overclocking utility to boost overclocking potential by 20%. MSI said the ability to push the graphics card to its limits reinforces its excellence in software and hardware customization, making it the first choice of overclocking enthusiasts.
In addition to overclocking, Afterburner also supports advanced fan speed control, custom overclocking settings, Predator audio/video capture and Kombustor burn-in testing. Gamers can download the Afterburner APP for Android or iOS operating systems to perform overclocking, remote monitoring and fan speed control in real-time from their handheld devices.
The MSI R7800 family is equipped with AMD's latest 28 nm GPU that offers greater performance and processing power than the previous generation, while reducing power consumption. The MSI R7800 series graphics cards support the PCI Express Gen 3 standard, which when combined with a compatible CPU and mainboard, double bandwidth to 32 GBps for delivering the ultimate in gaming performance.
MSI R7800 graphics cards provide DisplayPort 1.2 and HDMI 1.4a outputs that support 3D video, 7.1 channel lossless TrueHD video and DTS-HD audio, as well as supporting AMD's Eyefinity multiple display technology. MSI said the support for next-generation audio-video standards makes the MSI R7800 family the best choice for professionals and gamers.
