Conclusion
|
This is a monster graphics card that still offers high-power performance after a few years on the market. You will, however, have to put up with a certain amount of noise, not to mention a huge power consumption. |
Before releasing its new-gen graphics cards, AMD seemed intent on claiming the title of fastest model on the market. That has definitely been achieved with the Radeon HD 7990. This twin-GPU graphics card beats its competitors on performance, but it's not without its own limitations. |
As was to be expected, with the GeForce GTX 650 Ti Boost, Nvidia has outed a well-rounded video card with performance that matches the competition. But be warned, for your ears' sake we suggest opting for a model with an alternative cooling system. |
