Photo Gallery Gigabyte Radeon HD 6870
The backside of the product shows that everything is reference, 100% similar to the other 6870 cards we have tested to date. Make not of the one CrossfireX connector, this card can only be setup n 2-way Multi-GPU mode, anything higher is not possible.
Located at the backside we spot two 6-pin power connectors. This card only peaks to roughly 150W, so 75W is supplied through the PCIe slot, and the other 2x 75W through the two 6-pin PCIe PEG connectors. This card will offer great performance per watt. The card is roughly 11-inches long by the way.
One last photo of the product, here we have the card setup and being tested in our test platform. Quite a lovely sight really, but then again we have this entire dark/black thing going on in our chassis. Anyway, let's continue with the article, next up is 1080P Video processing.
