MSI Announces New Radeon HD 7750 with 2 GB DDR3 Memory

btarunr · Oct 15, 2012, 09:12 AM

For those who prefer more (albeit slower) video memory, MSI announced a new Radeon HD 7750 graphics card featuring 2 GB of DDR3 memory, compared to the 1 GB GDDR5 standard. The new card, bearing model number R7750-PMD2GD3, features custom design PCB and cooling solution. The PCB is 16.8 cm long, and relies on the PCI-Express slot for power. The cooler, on the other hand, consists of a full-length shroud, covering a round fan-heatsink with spirally-projecting aluminum fins, ventilated by a 70 mm MSI Propeller Blade fan.

The GPU is clocked at 800 MHz, with the memory running at 1.60 GHz (DDR3-effective). The 2 GB of memory is spread across a 128-bit wide interface. Display outputs include one each of dual-link DVI, HDMI, and DisplayPort. Based on the 28 nm "Cape Verde" silicon, the Radeon HD 7750 packs 512 Graphics CoreNext stream processors, 48 TMUs, 16 ROPs, and a 128-bit wide memory interface. It features PCI-Express 3.0 x16 interface, and supports the latest graphics APIs, including DirectX 11.1. MSI did not reveal pricing.

Oh, Crap

WHY?!

HD7750 GDDR5 is bottlenecked enough by its mem bandwidth, just... why?! For the love of god MSI, you know i love you guys but this is embarrassing...

Hallo, this is boss. Get rid of that huge DDR3 stock we have down there, ASAP!
Thanks guys, and keep up the good work.

That's not enough, with DDR3 4GB should be absolute minimum, 8GB being optimal.

DDR2 instead of DDR3

I don't like it, but I suppose should compete with the GT640 while at a much lower price, Although again why...

Here's what would've made some sense… a Half-Height HTPC. More ram (abate slower) is more apropos for most media tasks if I’m not mistake. Give it a nice passive vapor chamber with a couple of heat pipes and MSI could have differentiated it from every other discrete card, and got a good price to boot.

2 GB!?!?!? I thinks its kinda a waste

When are people who understand a thing or two about computer hardware going to realize that these cards are not catered towards them?

NeoXF · Oct 16, 2012, 10:34 AM

Kinda looks like just the card one would optimally pair AMD's future Kaveri APU with in dual graphic/hybrid crossfire mode...
