Benchmark Reviews have reviewed the MSI Radeon HD 7870 HAWK graphics card, which features a custom cooler and overclocked specifications.

Let's see what they had to say:

"The MSI R7870 Hawk was really designed for overclocking, so in terms of functionality, that's where it should excel. It certainly holds up in this area. This is one of the best video cards for overclocking that I have ever laid my hands on. The GPU reactor helps funnel more power to the components, which are made to withstand heavy loads. With all this, I was able to get the R7870 Hawk stably to 1300MHz on the GPU and 1450MHz on the memory. I was able to get it to boot at 1400MHz and 1600MHz respectively, and I'll bet with a little more tweaking I could get it more stable at that point. The MSI R7870 Hawk is certainly an overclocker with tons of headroom."


If you are looking for an overclocking friendly 7870 then the MSI Hawk looks like a great option. Check it out!
