We suspect that the extra power is required to keep the lower grade Barts LE GPU stable our HD 6790 1GB reported a vcore of 1.175V, compared with the 1.094V of an HD 6850 1GB. While part of this will be due to the HD 6790 1GB running at slightly higher clock speeds, the lower stream processor count should realistically negate this. One feature all partners cards will share, though, is the use of two 6-pin PCI-E power connectors, despite the fact that this card sits below the single 6-pin PCI-E powered HD 6850 1GB in AMD’s range. Differences in cooling, power delivery circuitry and PCB design mean each partner’s card could perform very differently when it comes to thermal and acoustic performance. For this reason we were keen to get our hands on the HD 6770.
While this means there should be plenty of competition and variety, it means our review sample, based on a stock HD 6870 1GB PCB, is only representative of graphics performance. The ATI Radeon HD 5770 was one of our favourite cards from last year, with plenty of DirectX 11 gaming power at a reasonable price. However its proximity to the RTX 3070 in price means that it.

All HD 6790 1GB cards will require two 6-pin PCI-E power connectorsĭespite the nomenclature gymnastics, in reality the HD 6790 1GB will be placed in the middle of the £30 price gap between the £99 HD 5770 1GB and the £135 HD 6850 1GB, taking on Nvidia’s recently released GTX 550Ti 1GB.Īs was the case with the HD 5830 1GB, there’ll be no stock model for the HD 6790 1GB, with board partners instead given free rein to use their own custom PCBs and coolers. The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT is an excellent 1440p graphics card, bringing the RDNA 2 architecture to a slightly more affordable price.
