HD6xxx Fullcover block

[gabe]

Hi Guys,

I am in the process of testing our new HD6970 cooling solution; I looked for O/C utilities but found none so far that work. It's either my OS (Win7 64) or the Beta AMD driver I am using, I am not sure at this point; I tried TriXX (cannot connect to low level driver), ATI Tool (does not recognize the card at all), MSI Afterburner (only allows max stock OC of 950); my contact at AMD is unavailable today. If anyone knows of a utility that works beyond 950, let me know, I'd appreciate it.

I will also try to come up with some CrossFire test results later on this week since I have two cards. Meanwhile, here is some basic info/features on the cooling solution:

True full cover (entire card is dressed)
0.6x0.6mm pin matric GPU cooling
Liquid cooled VRM's with hard contact to block for perfect TIM
Compatible with large compression fittings
Compatible with stock back-plate

Release date Mid January.
