LCS stands for Liquid Cooling Solution, which means that the newest PowerColor LCS HD 6990 video card comes with a waterblock (piece used on liquid cooling systems) made by EK. According to PowerColor, this cooling solution cools down the GPU temperature up to 30% compared to the reference model.
The brand-new PowerColor LCS HD 6990 card features stock clocks (830/880 MHz for GPUs, 5 GHz for memory), 4 GB of GDDR5 memory (2 GB per GPU), one DVI and four mini DisplayPort video outputs, and comes equipped with a Volterra’s digital voltage regulator circuit. An interesting point is that this video card is a single-slot solution, contrary to the reference model that occupies two slots on the computer case.
The video card should be available later this month. PowerColor did not mention the card’s price.
