Vertex3D Announces Partnership with Arctic Cooling, Intros VTX3D HD4870

btarunr · Aug 18, 2009, 10:23 AM

VERTEX3D, a new expected brand of AMD graphics card, today announced the partnership with leading cooling solution provider, ARCTIC COOLING, ready to bring a premium cooling solution of HD4870 series, provides a perfect combination of ultimate gaming performance and the coolest operating environment.

VTX3D HD4870 clocks in with a 770MHz core speed and 900MHz of memory speed that provides a superior gaming performance. In addition, VTX3D HD4870 is equipped with ARCTIC COOLING Accelero TWIN TURBO Pro cooling solution, with dual 92mm fans to increase air flow at low fan speed and 4 heatpipes to reinforce its cooling performance. VTX3D HD4870 cooling solution offers a surprisingly quiet operation for gamers to immerse themselves in the gaming world.

"Our goal was to provide a superior performance with faster and cooler environment," said Willie Huang, Sales Director of VTX3D, "With the partnership of the leading cooling solution provider, ARCTIC COOLING, I believe we can easily achieve that!"

VTX3D HD 4870 is compatible with Microsoft DirectX 10.1, PCI Express 2.0, on-chip HDCP, built-in HDMI with 7.1 surround audio, and also supports Shader Model 4.1, Universal Video Decode 2, and ATI CrossFireX technology, ready to tackle all the intense 3D games.

Looks like it cools well, but also looks like triple slot, which is quite a turn off.

ZoneDymo · Aug 18, 2009, 10:36 AM

tripple slot?
HD4870?

man, if they made it a high clocked HD4890 it would be ok but this is just stupid.

DrPepper · Aug 18, 2009, 10:43 AM

4870 so late in the game ... meh

KainXS · Aug 18, 2009, 10:47 AM

its a brand new company, you gotta start somewhere man

Cheeseball · Aug 18, 2009, 11:24 AM

I believe VERTEX3D may be a subsidiary of Palit, just like GALAXY, Gainward, etc. are...

You sure do and i guess the cost of putting them on 4890's would of lowered stock to much. Their surly different from the rest.

Thing i'm hating about AC these days is there VRM cooling is to cheap ass.

Maban · Aug 18, 2009, 11:34 AM

VRM area looks like copper painted aluminum.

Mussels · Aug 18, 2009, 12:12 PM

no crossfire, triple slot (when i see people mispell triple with a double P, i always read it as nipple) and a pretty much standard design... doesnt seem to special

No VTX3D is a TUL brand , just like PCS ( Powercolor ) . They allready have a Hd4890 with that zerotherm heatsink , just like PCS .

So basically you are buying Powercolor

F2K · Aug 18, 2009, 12:48 PM

TUL announced VTX in June. More info at http://www.techpowerup.com/95993/TUL...brand_VTX.html

Kitkat · Aug 18, 2009, 12:49 PM

Nope. VTX3D is owned by TUL, which also owns PowerColor. Also, Galaxy is not owned by Palit.

Galaxy is owned by PALIT since March 2008 , GALAXY ( also branded as KFA2 ) just received an AWARD from NVIDIA for its outstanding quality and leading innovation ( read custom : cooling solutions , own designed PCB`s ) . GALAXY is well known in CHINA , EUROPE and RUSSIA , therefore PALIT bought them for marketing expansion purposes back in 2008 . Remember that GALAXY was just a brand , they did not have any factories , other manufacturers built their cards back then .
In China you can find something like this for a GTX260 :

In Europe you can find the same card , only it has a green color scheme .
They won an award recently for the best single video card solution , one for the most non-reference cards in China ( trust me they have like 20 different versions of GT200 based cards there ) Also there is one GTX 260 GALAXY card that uses the cooler from GAINWARD GTX260 ( or the EXPERTVISION/PALIT , same thing ) .

MAXXSUN - is another PALIT brand . ( 影驰的这块GTX260 )

The card seems decent if you are looking for a upgrade ( sigle card ) , lets say you want to upgrade your hd4830 or older video card or smth . The twinturbo is a good cooling solution , gets the job done . There are a lot of non crossfire addicts out there ...

theres a lot of people out there who dont have four slots to sacrifice for a card, as well.

1 for the card, 2 for the cooler, one so the cooler actually gets some air.

werez · Aug 18, 2009, 04:57 PM

Yes , i agree ...

There are plenty of boards out there with >2U spacing between two PCI-E x16 slots.

The point is why grab this big ass 4870, if you can get a 4890 that out performs this while not much more expensive?

werez · Aug 19, 2009, 09:47 AM

i like bigass video cards , no seriously , i really really do

eva2000 · Aug 19, 2009, 05:14 PM

same design as Amaze-tech.com's HD4890 OC edition 900/400 card

There are boards that have PCI-E lanes far apart like that one DFI board.
