AMD now has a less expensive derivative based on the same GCN architecture. At its default clock rates, it's fast enough to outrun Nvidia's GeForce GTX 580 in many benchmarks. And it overclocks like mad. Presented By:Fri, 20 Jan 2012 06:00:00 CET In Pictures: The Best Graphics Card Values In HistoryTue, 10 Jan 2012 06:00:00 CET A few months ago, we published a list of the fastest, most powerful graphics cards from their respective generations.
