ASUS HD7750-1GD5 Pro Reviews

AMD's new Radeon HD 7750 is the lower cost version of the HD 7770. Naturally, lower price means lower performance, but the ratio is in favour of the HD 7750. Price/performance considered the card is a better deal than the Radeon HD 7770. In terms of absolute performance the card offers framerates similar to the last generation HD 5770/6770. ASUS has increased the clock rates of their card by a 2.5%, which is not much already. Unfortunately this translates into less than 1% real life performance gained. It seems that Radeon HD 7750 is a design that does not gain much from overclocking, as our own OC testing confirms. Such a small performance increase is negligible and only visible in benchmarks. Thanks to AMD's new 28 nm process and the advanced power consumption reduction features of the card we see the card claim the number one performance per Watt spot of all graphics cards we ever tested. It's really amazing: when compared to the NVIDIA GTX 480, the card is three times as power efficient. Even compared to less power hungry designs, like the whole AMD HD 5000 and 6000 Series, the card is still almost twice as efficient. With less than 45 Watts consumed during typical gaming the card does not need any additional power inputs. This makes it a good candidate to upgrade an older, weaker PC system.
