Test: Gigabyte Radeon HD 7790 2GB

Konklusion

Der er sikkert mange der sidder og tænker, om 2GB RAM fremfor 1GB er at foretrække. Selvfølgelig er det det, men ydelsesforskellen mellem 1GB og 2GB er marginal.
Hvad så med CrossFire? Det synes jeg ikke giver så forfærdeligt meget boost med lige disse HD 7790 kort, det er sikkert fint med 2 stk. HD 7770 eller 2 stk. HD 7850, men lige HD 7790 serien vil jeg ikke anbefale i CrossFire setup, da et enkelt større kort kan klare jobbet en del bedre, især med minimum FPS, hvor HD 7790 kan have lidt problemer.

Innovation/Teknologi - 4
28nm fra AMD sammen med en WindForce køler, der hidtil giver den koldeste HD 7790 chip, jeg har haft i hænderne, det må give et 4 tal.

Bundle/Tilbehør - 3
Man står ikke lige og mangler noget, men jeg synes alligevel, at kassen er ret tom efter, grafikkort er taget ud af den.

Design/Layout - 4
Kortet er ikke et af de korteste, men det burde ikke have problemer med at være i de fleste kabinetter. Kortet bruger kun et enkelt 6-pin PCIe strømstik, hvilket også gør, at de fleste strømforsyninger kan klare kortet.

Software/BIOS - 3
Softwaren (driveren) fungerede upåklageligt og skal derfor have 3.

Performance - 3
Her giver jeg samme point som MSI's HD 7790 OC Edition. Der kommer ret ofte nogle voldsomme FPS drops, der er utrolig irriterende. 

Price - 3
Kortet her yder faktisk det samme som MSI's HD 7790 og lider lidt af samme FPS drops som MSI. Forskellen på et 1GB og 2GB version er marginal. Jeg giver derfor kortet 3.

UK summary

A lot of people would think they should go for the 2 GB version instead the 1 GB version. And normally it would be like that, but there is almost no performance difference with this cards. But then, what about Crossfire? I don't feel like we get anything great out of it. You should do crossfire with 2 x HD7770 or 2 x HD7850, but for some reason I can't really recommend the HD7790 serie for crossfire.

Innovation/Technology - 4
28 nm from AMD with Gigabyte's WindForce cooler, gives me the so far coolest HD 7790 I have had in hand. No doubt, a figure 4.

Bundle/Accessories - 3
You simple don't need more, but when the video card is out of the box, it really does look empty.

Design/Layout - 4
The video card isn't the shortest, but it should be able to fit in most cases. The card only uses one PCIe 6-pin power, which most power supplies has today.

Software/BIOS - 3
The driver works and no more info here, just a figure 3.

Performance - 3
I've decided to give the same as the MSI HD7790 OC Edition. We get some FPS drops pretty often and that is just annoying.

Price - 3
This video card performs like the MSI HD7790 and has those FPS drops.The difference between a 1GB and 2GB version is marginal. That's why we will end up at the figure 3.
