Metku have reviewed the mid range HIS GHz Edition 7870 & 7850 graphics cards, which feature custom coolers and overclocked specifications.

Let's see what they had to say:

"In the recent years AMD's mid-range gaming cards have been offering very good value for money and performance per watt, and the Pitcairns sure keep up the reputation. The cards perform very similarly with the last generation HD 6970, while consuming 60 watts less power. One thing we've also noticed with the HD 5770, HD 6850 and HD 6870 is that they've all been decent overclockers, and the newcomers didn't let us down on this area, either. Both GPUs overclocked by 15% without any problems, which made the performance numbers even more impressive."


These seem like very decent mid range AMD cards. Though both the Asus ASUS HD 7850 Direct CUII or MSI HAWK 7870 make for some stiff competiton.
