XFX Radeon HD 7770 Black Super Overclocked Edition DD Video Card Review

Videocards/VGA Reviews by stefan @ 2012-02-21

The Radeon HD 7770 Black Super Overclocked Edition Double Dissipation is a video card from XFX featuring the new "Cape Verde" mainstream GPU. The card is cooled by the new dual fan cooling system from the same manufacturer, which is both efficient and silent, the GPU reaching no more than 65 degrees after 15 minutes of stress testing in Furmark. The card comes pre-overclocked and still has some headroom left without the need of raising the stock voltage.

The Radeon HD 7770 features only one 6-pin PCI-E power connector:

The opposite side contains a cable splitter, which is used to power both fans from the same header on the PCB:

On the back side we can find the matte black PCB with a lot of holes unused, left from the original design:

Two of the screws that hold the cooling system fixed onto the GPU are covered with warranty stickers:

An additional sticker with the product code name and serial number can be found here:

The Radeon HD 7770 comes only with one Crossfire finger, which means that we can use a maximum of two cards:

The metallic plate features a design which helps evacuate hot air better ; here we also have the DVI connector, one HDMI and two Mini-DP:
