Radeon R9 270X PowerColor 2GB OC Edition Game Requirement Analysis

Radeon R9 270X PowerColor 2GB OC Edition is a special edition of the high-end Radeon R9 270X.
This edition comes overclocked out of the box in the central unit that was increased from 1000MHz to 1030MHz, while the Boost clock is now of 1080MHz.
There are no benchmarks available but we predict 2% performance boost over the standard edition and so this card should perform on level with a Radeon HD 7950 Boost Edition.
