Confused over Powercolour HD7970 GPU

[jonnieboy]

Need a noob help here.

The Powercolour HD7970 3GB that tradepac is selling is a reference card or non-reference? I did a search on google and there are so many kind.

I found Powercolour HD 7970 3GB, Powercolour HD 7970 3GB V3.

What is the diff?

Thanks all!

If I'm not wrong, the Powercolour HD 7970 3GB V3 is a later version and has better performance....correct me if I'm wrong.

As far as I know, Ban Leong only bring in one PowerColor 7970 model, the V2 (PowerColor HD7970 3GB GDDR5 (V2) | Ban Leong Technologies Limited). This is a non-reference design. However, the one TP is selling, I'm not sure. Thou unlikely it can be other model they para-import in.

hmm.. looking at the spec of Power colour 7970 v2 and Powercolour 7870 Myst.. doesnt seem much different leh. In fact Myst got higher clock speed.

Sorry i am noob here. Any bro can advise?

I think 7970 is higher performance at a lower power drawn than myst.
