Like any launch of a product we find ourselves looking at offerings from lots of companies. We started off with the reference HD 7970 which we then followed up with by checking out the new XFX HD 7970 Black Edition Double Dissipation which really impressed us.

Today we’re moving over to a HIS HD 7970 video card and since it follows the reference design and MSI have just released a new version of Afterburner that allows voltage adjustment on the new HD 7970, we figured it was time to see how the overclocking capabilities of the new card is.

Before we cover the overclocking ability, the first thing we need to do is take a closer look at the package HIS has going on before we move in closer to the card itself. Once that’s done we’ll check out the specifications and how we went with overclocking. Then as always we get into the testbed and of course check out the performance of the card.

The main thing we’ll be looking at is the kind of performance we’re able to get out of the card when compared to the reference clocked card.
