ASUS Radeon HD 7750 1 GB Review
Packaging & Contents »Introduction

Two weeks ago AMD launched their Radeon HD 7700 Series. The cards use the all-new Cape Verde graphics processor which is based on AMD's new GCN Graphics Core Next architecture that promises increased performance and lower power draw.
Cape Verde is a downscale from the "Tahiti" silicon, on which higher Radeon HD 7900 series parts are based. There are fewer number of redundant components, so Cape Verde is left functionally-identical to Tahiti, but is smaller, built for more affordable graphics cards. Cape Verde also retains the basic hierarchy of the architecture as implemented in Tahiti.

The ASUS Radeon HD 7750 is a custom implementation of the HD 7750, using a custom heatsink and increased clock rates of 820 MHz GPU and 1150 MHz memory.
