Based on a new 28nm process
technology and utilizing more than 4.3 billion transistors, Graphics
Core Next uses a revised instruction set architecture, gives each
compute unit the ability to simultaneously execute instructions from
multiple kernels, and delivers an increased number of instructions per
clock cycle per square millimeter of GPU space.
The Radeon HD 7970 is the first of a series of upcoming graphics cards
that are making the jump to the 28nm fabrication process. The new HD
7970 will effectively become AMD's new flagship single GPU graphics card
come January, when the board is expected to ship.

"Outside of the cards graphical performance I was impressed with the reference cooling design. During my testing not once did I hear the card over top of the Cooler Master v6 that we used to cool our CPU. The v6 isn’t a loud cooler, the HD6870 just put out less noise. Not only is it quiet but it kept our card cool even through the most demanding benchmarks. Part of that is due to the more efficient design of the chipset, but the heatsink played its part as well.All of this performance would make you think that the HD6870 is going to be a power hog, but due to the refinements in the design it does surprisingly well. The card's power draw with load comes in at a very respectable 151 watts, much better than the 188 watts that a 5870 requires at load. At idle the 6870 barely registers with only 19 watts! This is perfect for those of us who like to keep our rig running all of the time but don’t want to throw our money down the drain on a high electric bill." - WC

an excellent upgrade for those who want dual video cards, as the initial releases of the 5800 series are going to disappear quick. This should also become an inexpensive upgrade, as prices should continue to drop with the release of the new chip, making it a fantastic value upgrade for someone already brandishing an HD 4890 card in their system.In the end, this card from DIAMOND can easily stand on it’s own in a system.

THETECHLOUNGE.COM ] The Tech Lounge reviews the LanShark gaming system by Smooth Creations featuring a Diamond 4870 1G GPU.
"I can say positively that the LanShark's performance continues to scale with steeper settings, and that the 9800 GTX doesn't do nearly as well."
"The Diamond 4870 1 gig Video card is an excellent choice if you're looking for a high end graphics card, it performs well in both DX9 and DX10 on the latest games with no problems at all."
Definitivamente el gigabyte de RAM hace maravillas sobre la GPU, llevando la misma a competir frente a frente contra los GTX 200 de nVidia sin problemas. Gracias a esta Diamond Viper HD4870 1GB GDDR5 podemos jugar a todos los títulos del momento en las resoluciones nativas de nuestros LCD sin ningún tipo de sobresalto y sin resignar niveles de detalle.
Diamond HD4870 con 1GB de RAM es la tarjeta que todos deberíamos aspirar a tener, su rendimiento y precio asi nos lo demuestran. Es por ello que le otorgamos la medalla de ORO de Irrompibles como el mejor producto que hemos testeado en mucho tiempo.
"Overall, the experience with Diamond’s RADEON 4870 X2 could have hardly been any better, the card is a superior performer and it runs very quiet. " ..."Lets face it: 2 GB of 3.6 gbps DDR5 and two GPUs with more stream processors than some other cards have transistors, all of it working without the need to use noise-cancellation headphones at a street price in the vicinity of US$ 540.-. That is about as sweet a deal as one could possibly dream of. One might just as well get two of these cards and run in CrossFireX mode." "The Diamond R4870 X2 literally wipes the floor with the rest of the contenders. "

EXTREMETECH.COM ] "The Diamond Radeon HD 4870 offers an impressive price/performance ratio, and generally impressive performance for a sub-$300 card."
If you are in the market for a new graphics card in the $300 range, the HD 4870 should be your weapon of choice. It offers tons of performance to ensure all the latest games run silk smooth. If you plan on gaming on your big screen, the card is a good choice too. It supports a digital HDMI connection via the included adapter that also supports sound via HDMI. A novelty here is that 7.1 audio is supported as well, the previous HD 3xxx cards could only do 5.1 audio.
