Bjorn3D News: AMD HD4890 article + Asus HD4890 Voltage Tweak Edition review

[news 28]

Hi all!

 

This has been an interesting day. Not only did we release an article about the new GeForce GTX-275, we have also one article about the new HD4890 GPU as well as a review of the Asus HD4890 Voltage Tweak Edition. We hope that either or both of these interest your readers.

 

HD480 GPU article:

 

'Springtime usually means a new GPU from both NVIDIA and AMD and even though we live in troubled times it is that time again in 2009. A week ago in the last days of March I sat down at an AMD presentation where we were shown among other products the card that we will talk about today, the new HD4890 which is using the “new” RV790 GPU. The planned release were on the 9th of April, even though reports were already coming in that cards using it were out in the Far East, but due to the “Green’s” decision to try to spoil the party with a “limited” launch of the new GTX275 AMD decided to move the release forward a week to today.'

Asus HD4890 Voltage Tweak Edition review:

 

'The Asus 4890 Voltage Tweak allows you to increase the core voltage without having to resort to such primitive methods. Take a GPU that is already capable of a 950 Mhz speed (overclocked) without tweaking the voltage and add a little voltage to it and you could be looking at 1 GHz core speed bragging rights. That little advantage that enthusiasts look for without all the convolutions to get it. Asus is truly pushing the envelope with the 4890 Voltage Tweak, and once again embracing the true enthusiast in all of us'
