You probably think that you've already seen all there is to see about AMD Radeon HD 7870 graphics cards, but the Radeon HD 7870 jokerCard 2 GB that Club 3D recently launched is something special indeed. That's because this video card isn't based on the Pitcairn GPU like the other 7870 cards, but instead the Tahiti chip that's traditionally been used for the high-end Radeon HD 7950 and 7970. That makes the 7870 jokerCard faster but not more expensive than the standard HD 7870.

If you're interested in spending money on a Radeon HD 7970, then the Club 3D royalAce is certainly worth considering. It is clearly the fastest Radeon HD 7970 that we've tested until now. It's also the hottest, which somewhat limits its overclocking potential. It's also noisier than average. If you're only interested in performance, then this Radeon HD 7970 royalAce is a good choice. The ASUS HD7970-DC2T-3GD5 is about six degrees cooler, about 10 dB(A) quieter, a little cheaper but also a little slower.

When we compare the performance of the GeForce GTX 690 and the Radeon HD 7990 there isn't a clear winner. In some benchmarks one is better, and in others worse. It's clear, however, that you do need two GPUs for gaming on three monitors with high settings, so dual-GPU cards are definitely useful.

The Club 3D GTX480 has 480 cores and has a GPU operating at 700MHz. It also has 1401 shaders and 1536MB of GDDR5 memory running at 3696MHz and is paired up with a 384-bit memory interface.
The GTX470 version is only a little bit slower but not by much. The 470 has 448 cores and the same reference clocks as the rest of the GTX 470 cards that are currently up on the market today. It has a core clock speed of 607MHz, 1215MHz for the shaders, and a speed of 3348MHz for the 1280MB of GDDR5 memory which is nicely paired up with a 320-bit memory interface.

Not that long ago Club3D made a very bold and striking decision to exclusively work with AMD graphics processing units only, leaving Nvidia on the sidelines. Since then we have seen a flurry of activity from Club3D to produce a vast range of SKUs of HD 7000 series card to cater for every price point for every AMD GPU, notably with the release of their brand new ’13 series.
Today we are looking at one of their upper-range HD 7790 graphics cards, or more specifically the HD 7790 royalKing from their Poker Series. Like the majority of Club3D graphics cards the HD 7790 royalKing we have here today uses their CoolStream cooling solution to keep things running cool and quiet without breaking the bank. The Club 3D HD 7790 royalKing comes with factory overclocks out of the box, on the GPU only, which is overclocked 7.5% to 1075MHz while the memory runs at a stock speed of 6GHz. Other than that the unit is kind-of normal although the design in my opinion is one of the nicest as the unit uses a black PCB, black cooling shroud and is very compact which is ideal for such a mid-range GPU.

Today we are looking at a new card from Club3D – the HD7870 Royal King, which ships in an overclocked configuration with custom cooler. The big question we will answer today, can Club3d compete in this competitive marketplace against the likes of market leader Sapphire?

Nachdem Release der GTX 660 Ti von Nvidia geriet in die Preisgestaltung der Grafikkarten endlich wieder Bewegung. Angestoßen wurde dies seitens AMD mit einer durchaus beachtlichen Preissenkung der HD7850, HD7870 und der 7970. Eines dieser Modelle haben wir uns einmal genauer vorgenommen und geprüft, ob sie für den aktuellen Ladenpreis wirklich ihr Geld wert ist. Die Club 3D HD7870 Royal Queen kommt mit einem individuellen Kühler daher und will durch den Preis sowie der erbrachten Leistung überzeugen. Wir prüfen ob dies gelungen ist. Des Weiteren feiern wir mit diesem Artikel unseren ersten Grafikkarten Testbericht, getreu dem Motto: "let the show beginn!".

The winter months can be depressing, with saturating rain and icy snow pervading dark evenings, so why not spend some money on a new graphics card for yourself, tuck up tight in bed and game on a big high definition television set? Club3D might have the answer in the shape of their HD7970 RoyalAce graphics card, featuring enhanced clock speeds, lower noise emissions and proprietary cooling system.

Most gamers today still overwhelmingly game on single monitor systems, whether that be at a resolution of 1920 x 1080 (FHD) or 2560 x 1440 (WQHD) – the two most popular “high end” gaming resolutions. Of course gamers using 1080p displays are still the most common but both 5760 x 1080 and 2560 x 1440 are gaining more traction with gamers as “only” 1080p starts to become dated (and is often put to shame but high resolution tablets and ultrabooks). 2560 x 1440 is growing in popularity a lot thanks to the affordability of the South Korean WQHD panels and the fact 1440p panels use the same aspect ratio (16:9) as 1080p panels, so are a “direct” upgrade. It just makes sense that most gamers will choose 1440p panels as their next upgrades instead of WXQHD (2560 x 1600) displays which never really took off, just like its predecessor WUXGA (1920 x 1200) didn’t, maybe due to the less popular 16:10 aspect ratio. What relevance does this have to today’s review you may be thinking? Well today we have a GPU that aims to hit the sweet spot of performance and pricing for 2560 x 1440 and 5760 x 1080 gaming resolutions. We’ve managed to get Club3D’s R9 280X royalKing 3GB graphics card in for review. Club 3D’s R9 280X royalKing is based on AMD’s $299 3GB R9 280X GPU, which is essentially a rebranded HD 7970. Offering a hefty amount of GPU horsepower and 3GB of frame buffer it is designed for “more-than-1080p” gaming.
