PowerColor has launched an AMD Radeon HD 6950 factory-overclocked video card equipped with two 92 mm Vortex fans, which allows the user to manually adjust the fan a bit further from the card in order to get better airflow. According to the manufacturer, the Vortex cooler can cool down the temperature of the video card up to 20 °C when compared to the stock cooler.
PowerColor's PCS+ HD6950 Vortex II Edition works internally at 850 MHz (6.25% above the stock clock of 800 MHz), has 2 GB of GDDR5 memory running at 5.2 GHz (4% above the stock clock of 5 GHz) through a 256-bit interface, and two DVI, one HDMI, and two mini-DisplayPort video outputs. This card features top-notch components, like solid caps and ferrite chokes.
If you buy this video card you’ll also take home the game Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, but this promotion isn't available in Germany, Japan and China.
