ASUS Announces R9 200 and R7 200 Series DirectCU II
Graphics Cards
Exclusive direct-contact cooling technology and DIGI+ voltage-regulator
module enable new AMD Radeon R9 and R7 GPUs
to run 20% cooler and 3X quieter
ASUS today announced the launch of its R9 200 and R7 200 Series
DirectCU II graphics cards, powered by the latest AMD Radeon™ R9 and R7 series
graphics-processing units (GPUs).
The new R9 280X, R9 270X and R7 260X
graphics cards are brimming with exclusive ASUS technologies and tools
including DirectCU II cooling technology for cooler and quieter gaming performance,
DIGI+ voltage-regulator modules (VRMs) for smooth and stable power supply and
GPU Tweak, an easy-to-use software for tuning the graphics card.
The R9 280X, R9 270X and R7 260X are
all ASUS TOP-rated graphics cards, meaning they are overclocked to perform
faster than reference – respectively turning in core speeds of 1070MHz, 1120MHz
and 1188MHz.
Faster, quieter and cooler — even in the heat of battle
All three new graphics cards benefit
from exclusive ASUS DirectCU II cooling technology. This puts highly-conductive
copper cooling pipes in direct contact with a card’s GPU so heat is dissipated
quickly and with extreme efficiency. Compared with reference Radeon R9 and R7
designs, ASUS R9 280X, R9 270X and R7 260X with DirectCU II allow the latest
AMD Radeon GPUs to run up to 20% cooler, three times (3X) quieter– so gamers
can enjoy ultra-stable play with very low noise. R9 280X outperforms reference designs with
an exclusive 10mm heat-pipe that transports 40% more heat away from the GPU and
radiating fins with a surface area that’s 220% larger – further improving
cooling.
The fans of R9 280X, R9 270X, and R7 260X are all
dust-proof, reducing debris accumulation and retaining peak performance over a
longer lifespan. In addition, R9 280X boasts exclusive ASUS CoolTech fan technology. This
innovative cooler’s hybrid blade and bearing design, with inner radial blower
and outer flower-shaped blades, delivers multi-directional airflow to
accelerate heat removal and enable improved graphics performance.
Incredible stability with DIGI+ Super Alloy Power
R9 280X, R9 270X and R7 260X are all
equipped with exclusive ASUS DIGI+ VRM with Super Alloy Powertechnology. Paired
with Super Alloy Power solid-state capacitors, concrete-core chokes and
hardened MOSFETs, DIGI+ VRM delivers multi-phase power and digital voltage
regulation for increased graphics card stability and cleaner power, even during
the most intense GPU activities.
DIGI+ VRM with Super Alloy
Powertechnology also reduces power noise such as buzzing and increases the
graphic card’s longevity: compared to reference cards, power noise is reduced
by as much as 30% and the card’s expected lifespan by up to two-and-a-half
times (2.5X).
Easy overclocking and online streaming
The included ASUS GPU Tweak utility
enables R9 280X, R9 270X and R7 260X users intuitive control over GPU and
video-memory clock speeds and voltages, cooling-fan speeds and
power-consumption thresholds – so they can overclock easily and with high
confidence. Multiple profiles for different games can also be created for rapid
on-demand switching between custom performance setups.
R9 280X, R9 270X and R7 260X also
include GPU Tweak Streaming, an online-streaming tool that lets users share
on-screen action over the internet in real time – so others can watch live as games are
played. It’s even possible to add to the streaming window scrolling text,
pictures and webcam images.
