ASUS will soon introduce the EAH5770 CuCore, a custom-design version of the Radeon HD 5770 with a cooling solution that features a big 5.8oz copper core. The clockspeeds remain unchanged, and ASUS claims the new model should run about 11 percent cooler than the reference design. The company also made some changes to the PCB, higher quality capacitors were added to improve overclocking but the DisplayPort was removed. One CrossFire connector was also cut and one of the DVI ports was swapped for a VGA port. Pricing is expected to be around 130EUR.
