Display graphics card Micro-Star International (MSI) is still this seems like the default of the AMD-ATI. In fact, this graphics card was born with the condition in-overclock by MSI.

Not different from the AMD-ATI, graphics card cooling fan has a diameter of 77mm, and is classified as obese in size then this graphics card will spend 2 slot when operated.
On the back there are 2 units for additional power port PCI-EX power based 6pin, it means that the graphics card is quite power hungry and need a power supply were minimal wall 500Watt or more to run it safely.

MSI trying to push up the capacity of the graphics card processor and the clock clockmemory, ie, from coreclock of a 750MHz to 780MHz while the memory, of 1800Mhz (3600MHz effective on) to 2000Mhz (4000Mhz effective at).

Comfortable Without noise

If seen from the changes, the increase is not too significant and the ability to try to directly use the MSI OC Edition 4870 to play this game and run the application benchmark.

The result is quite satisfactory, digeber Although always in a state of full load, cooling graphic card is not comfortable enough noise even when operated in the computer casing
open.

Both performance

Total Stream processor 800 can be held smoothly devour the latest games at this time. use the application that there is a benchmark in Farcry2.

The result, with a resolution of 1440 X 900, Ultra Detail successfully get 32.46 Frame Per Second (FPS). Learn, adding burden to the GPU to enable Anti-Aliasing up to 4X and the results obtained is 20.48 FPS.

After trying the game, running the 3D benchmark application Vantage. Performance using the configuration that has been provided by Futuremark, this graphics card to get P8434 GPU Score.

See the test results above. If the graphics card with this system based Quadcore, akan very easily devour all teranyar games with maximum detail disandingkan especially when the LCD size 19 "-22" graphics card then this will be a wise choice.

Excess
+ Peforma great
