Form and Specifications AMD Radeon HD 7970 VGA Circulating on the Internet

After rumors about the launch date of AMD's Radeon HD 7970, we met a few websites now display slide presentations that show how the shape and spesifkasi used by the AMD HD 7970. Here are some pictures that we managed to quote from some website.

In the picture above shows the form of graphics cards AMD Radeon HD 7900 series. Visible AMD HD 7900 uses a dual-slot cooling design with blower type fan. AMD uses a new design on the lid HSF AMD HD 7900 remains with the characteristic black and red color combination. Hot air exhaust slots now have a larger size than the previous generation, HD 6900, which measures just half the width graphics card.
