Techpowerup found photos of a new MATRIX series Radeon HD 4870 graphics card from ASUS. This card features an own-designed PCB and a dual-fan cooler to improve overclocking performance.
The card sports 512 MB of GDDR5 memory. The core is clocked at 770 MHz, with memory at 920 MHz (3680 MHz effective). One of the main selling points for the MATRIX series cards is the level of control it gives the users. Users are able to set and control clock-speed profiles, monitor the card's various thermal zones and voltages, set voltages manually, monitor and control fan speeds, and also end up with enhanced power-saving modes that reference-design cards don't come with.
