Guru3D have posted a review of the GIGABYTE Radeon HD 7970 OC graphics card, which features an impressive triple-fan custom cooler and overclocked specifications.

Here's what they had to say:

"It is time to wrap this review up, we liked the reference R7970, and we like the Radeon HD 7970 OC (WindForce edition) even better. All variables are right, the overall looks, the cooling, the okay noise levels, the factory overclock ... yeah it's all good. The obvious downside is the price-range the R7970 sells in but if that is not an issue for you, then we can wholeheartedly recommend the Gigabyte Radeon HD 7970 OC (WindForce edition)."


While the XFX Radeon HD 7970 3GB Black Edition Double Dissipation might have marginally higher memory clocks, this new GIGABYTE model has a vastly superior cooler and is my pick as the best Radeon HD 7970 on the market right now.
