Diamond is prepping its ATI Radeon HD 4870 XOC Black Edition graphics card that will be available exclusively with Smoothcreation's systems. The new card is designed with a custom firmware that enables this card to reach a rather impressive core and memory clocks.
The default clocks for the new HD 4870 XOC Black edition card are 800MHz for the GPU and 1,100MHz (4.4GHz effectively) for 512MB of GDDR5 memory. Diamond's custom firmware unlocks the GPU and memory clocks so that they could be raised to 950MHz for the GPU and stunning 1,200MHz (4.8GHz effectively) for the memory.
The new card should available tomorrow, exclusively at Smoothcreation's website. It is still not clear if this card is made only for Smoothcreation's systems, but we hope that this card will make it to store shelves as well.
god if they can bring a 4870 at this speed its going 2 wipe the floor with the 280
if only you could overclock one to that speed
