Description

The Sapphire HD 6970 uses a GPU architecture from AMD which features dual graphics engines in one chip with 24 SIMD engines and a total of 1536 stream processors with 96 texture units, providing massively parallel computing power for graphics and other accelerated applications. Its core clock speed of 880MHz, together with a dedicated high speed interface to GDDR5 memory running at 1375MHz delivers the highest performance in this series. Tesselation engines bring three times the performance of the previous generation, and Enhanced Quality AA and filtering modes bring the highest image quality ever achieved.

  • Dual-link DVI

    Equipped with the most popular dual- link DVI (Digital Visual Interface), this card is able to display ultra high resolutions of up to 2560 x 1600 at 60 Hz.
  • HDMI

    HDMI builds on previous generations of HDMI connectivity with support for Deep Color, 7.1 high bitrate audio, and 3D stereoscopic support, ensuring the high quality Blu-ray and video experience possible from your PC.
  • Mini-DisplayPort

    Enjoy the benefits of the display interface, DisplayPort. With the ultra high HD resolution of 2560 x 1600 the graphics card ensures that you are able to support the latest generation of LCD monitors.
  • DisplayPort 1.2

    Doubling the effective bandwidth of previous DisplayPort implementations, DisplayPort 1.2 now includes support for Multi-Stream, allowing you to drive up to four separate monitors from a single DisplayPort 1.2 connector, Stereoscopic 3D monitor support and adds support for high quality, lossless, 7.1 channel audio formats.
  • Advanced GDDR5 memory technology

    GDDR5 memory provides twice the bandwidth per pin of GDDR3 memory, delivering more speed and higher bandwidth.
  • 40 nm process technology

    Cutting edge manufacturing process allows for efficient, high performance parts which use less power than their predecessors.
  • AMD CrossFireX Multi-GPU technology

    Triple or Quadruple gaming power with AMD CrossFireX Multi-GPU technology. AMD CrossFireX technology supports up to four graphics cards to be used in a single system.
  • PCI-Express 2.0

    The PCI-Express 2.0 specification doubles data throughput from 2.5 Gbps to 5 Gbps allowing you to exploit the full performance potential of your graphics card.
  • AMD HD3D technology

    Enjoy the most immersive experience possible with full support for High Definition Stereoscopic 3D, a technique that presents 2D images in a format that creates the illusion of three-dimensional depth when using compatible 3D displays/glasses/software.
  • OpenGL 4.1

    Supports the OpenGL API (Application Programming Interface) to accelerate performance of applications outside of DirectX, i.e. Adobe Autodesk 2D/3D graphic design.
  • Shader Model 5.0

    Supports the latest Shader Model 5.0 feature set including VTF (Vertex Texture Fetch) which is a key feature used extensively in many of the games that ship today. Without support for this feature the game will fall back to a lesser shader path resulting in the loss of cool, lifelike effects made possible by Shader Model 5.0.
  • AMD PowerPlay

    Dynamically manage power efficiency and take control of your performance with AMD's revolutionary AMD PowerPlay power management technology delivering high performance features when needed and conserving power when the demand on the graphics processor is low. This seemless technology dramatically reduces the overall power consumption allowing for break-through energy efficiency.
  • AMD PowerTune technology

    AMD PowerTune is a breakthrough technology that sets an entirely new direction for maximum performance at TDP. It allows the GPU to be designed with higher engine clock speeds which can be applied on the broad set of applications that have thermal headroom.
  • Display flexibility

    Offers an incredible choice of the display connectivity options natively on the board, including dual-link DVI-I, DisplayPort and HDMI along with adapters to ensure compatibility with your legacy analog VGA monitor.
  • TriXX utility

    TriXX helps users to get the optimum performance from compatible Sapphire graphics cards in any application by allowing them to monitor, tune and save different settings of key parameters for the card.
  • Enhanced Unified Video Decoder 3 (UVD 3)

    Watch the hottest Blu-ray movies or other HD content at full 1080p display resolution. Enjoy a feature rich video experience with enhanced Unified Video Decoder 3 (UVD 3), offloading the bulk of the video decoding tasks from the CPU to the GPU allowing for a cooler, quieter and more balanced system.
