Radeon R7 260X v2 XFX Core 2GB Edition Game Requirement Analysis
Overview
Radeon R7 260X v2 XFX Core 2GB Edition is a special edition of AMD's Performance Radeon R7 260X v2, created by XFX.
Overclock: Central Unit
The Central Unit has been increased from 1000MHz to 1075MHz.
Overclock: Memory Clock
The Operating Memory Clock has been increased from 1500MHz to 1600MHz.
Frame Buffer
The Frame Buffer was doubled to 2GB.
However, because the Graphics Card itself is not Powerful enough to work under circumstances in which 2GB are needed, such as 1080p, it is mostly a gimmick.
Cooling Solution
The reference cooling system has been replaced by XFX's exclusive ghost thermal design which creates a floating heatsink with open airflow between the PCB and the cover so that air can quickly ventilate off the card while simultaneously cooling the core process and the components. It's the only total cooling solution available today.
Performance
Benchmarks indicate a 5% performance over the reference Radeon R7 260X v2.
