Radeon HD 6870 PowerColor X2 Edition Game Requirement Analysis
Radeon HD 6870 PowerColor X2 Edition is a dual-graphics solution of two Radeon HD 6870.
It offers two Bart XT cores and thus 2240 Shader Processing Units, 112 TMUs and 64 ROPs, on a 512-bit (256-bit per card) memory interface of fast GDDR5. The clock frequencies remained unchanged when compared to the reference card.
Benchmarks indicate its performance is clearly above a single high-end Radeon HD 6970 but a Radeon HD 6990 is still way more powerful.
