The HIS HD 7970 X IceQ X2 Turbo graphics card from AMD is built on the GCN 1.0 architecture and was officially introduced on 22.06.2012. Thanks to modern manufacturing technology, engineers managed to place 4.3 billion transistorsistors transistors on a 352 mm² die. The model's computational arsenal includes 2048 universal processors. Also available are 0 specialized cores for ray rendering and 0 cores for accelerating artificial intelligence. The memory subsystem features GDDR5 modules with a total capacity of 3 GB. The bus width is 384 bit bits, and the peak data exchange rate is 288.00 GB/s. The graphics chip operates at a base clock of 1150 MHz with dynamic acceleration capability up to 1180 MHz. The nominal thermal design power is 300 W. For stable system operation, a PSU of 700 W or more will be required.
