Asus EAH5870 (Asus 5870v2) Voltage Tweak

jmke · 21st May 2010, 16:22

Asus has long been producing exciting products, and even more exciting product variants. By now the HD5870 is pretty much a known quantity, leave it to Asus to come along and change that. They have fielded the Asus EAH5870 Voltage Tweak. It's an HD5870 with improved cooling and lets you adjust the voltage for better overclocking.

In our experience the Voltage Tweak editions can hit as high as 1050MHz core speed while normal HD5870 might hit 925MHz if you got a good one. Let's fire this puppy up and see how it fares at stock clocks and at a comfortable overclock. After we bench it at some insane core speed we'll push it to the limits and see how fast it can go at the ragged edge of maximum OC.
