ASUS Releases Passive AMD Radeon HD 6770 1GB GDDR5 Video Card
ASUS recently announced the Radeon HD 6770 DirectCU Silent, which now is the companies most powerful and advanced fanless graphics cards available today. The graphics card obviously runs totally silent and they claim that it is 16% cooler than generic passive designs thanks to the custom ASUS DirectCU Silent cooler design. The ASUS HD 6770 DirectCU Silent features 800 stream processors and 40 texture units, plus 1GB of GDDR5 video memory. The core is clocked at 850 MHz and the memory is clocked at 1200 MHz (4.80 GHz effective). The card is now shipping to retailers around the world.
ASUS thermal engineers have developed exclusive DirectCU cooling technology, integrating direct-contact copper heat pipes that touch the GPU core for faster and more effective heat dissipation, and thus lower temperatures and better performance. Based on these principles, ASUS engineers have created the most effective 0dB silent graphics cards available. DirectCU Silent designs have been applied on the GT 430, GT 440, GTS 450 and HD 6670 previously, and now on the HD 6770 model. Through intricate material processing and intelligent molding, the heatsinks in DirectCU Silent cards offer up to 95% larger surface area and run around 16% cooler than conventional passive cards, resulting in more stable performance and longer lasting products.
