Con il comunicato stampa di seguito allegato, Palit Microsystems ha lanciato la scheda grafica Palit Radeon HD 4870 1GB Sonic Dual Edition che si fa notare per le prestazioni velocistiche al top della categoria in virtù dell'adozione, da parte del produttore, di un profilo frequenziale per gpu e memoria on board con valori più elevati di quelli indicati da AMD con lo schema reference.

La gpu della card lavora normalmente infatti a 750MHz e la RAM (1GB di G-DDR5) a 3.8GHz; tuttavia, mediante la funzionalità Smart Switch, implementata con il ricorso ad una configurazione dual-bios ed attivata con un pulsante (cfr. la seconda delle foto che seguono), è possibile spingere la componentistica ad operare fuori specifica ovvero in modalità "Turbo Mode" (clock della gpu a 775MHz e RAM G-DDR5 a 4GHz), pur senza rinunciare alla stabilità operativa in virtù del sistema di raffreddamento a doppia ventola adottato dal board maker.

Palit Microsystems, leading graphics card manufacturer, today proudly announces Palit Radeon HD 4870 1GB Sonic Dual Edition with pre-overclocked 750 MHz core speed and 3.8 GHz memory speed. This innovative Sonic Dual Edition card features the overclocking friendly “Smart Switch” allowing users to easily turbocharge the card to 775 MHz core and 4GHz memory speed.

Overclocking is easy and friendly! With its dual bios design, Palit Radeon HD 4870 1GB Sonic Dual Edition has a core frequency of 750 MHz and 1024 MB of cutting edge GDDR5 memory at 3.6 GHzand is able to turbocharge to 4GHz memory speed and 775 MHz core speed with the “Smart Switch”! Every user can be an enthusiast! The revolutionary Palit designed dual-fan cooling system releases users from the worries of overheating. Furthermore, Palit HD 4870 1GB Sonic Edition is equipped with advanced DisplayPort and HDMI making it a future proof graphics card.

Palit Radeon HD 4870 1GB Sonic Dual Edition with pre-overclocked core and memory speed combined with 1024MB king-size memory provides astonishing graphics performance while offering extra memory buffer, allowing users to enjoy extreme performance improvements while playing the latest DX10 PC games under HD large screen and high quality image (such as 8xAA).Palit Radeon HD 4870 1GB Sonic along with the latest PCI-Express 2.0 platform and Microsoft DirectX 10.1 Shader Model 4.1 technology deliver the best gaming, video playback and computational GPU solution. If you want 2X the performance of Palit Radeon HD 4870 1GB Sonic, it supports ATI CrossFireX Technology!
