AMD Radeon 6950 1GB Graphics Card Review

An Even Closer Look
The 6950 features the standard black plastic casing that we’ve seen on many cards before and no hint at a change is evident. The fan is located towards the end and features the same style cooling as seen on the 2Gb variant.

Once the card has been taken off, it reveals the same design as the other 6900 series cards and its big copper block and thermal pads can be seen.

The ATi (who?) fan can be seen which forces air through the aluminium block and exhausts out of the back of the card where your expansion bays are situated.

An exposed card sees a reference design with the GPU core taking centre stage surround by the memory chips.

The back of the card features an array of screw points for the heatsink and bracket as well as the outer casing. Cards from AMD’s partners may feature a different design depending on the cooler design.

Even though the cooler features an ATi branded fan, the core shows off the patented AMD logo.

The memory used are Hynix GDDR5 memory chips that we’ve seen on other cards from the 6900 series. The code on the chips are H5GQ1H24AFR-T2C and operate at 1250MHz (5000MHz).
