Along with the Aire M1 mouse, Gigabyte also sent me a shiny new HD 7770 GPU! Not just any 7770 either, but a factory overclocked edition. This is the mid range of AMD’s newest GPUs based on a 28nm process and like the rest of the cards we have seen so far from AMD’s 28nm process it has some wild stock clock speeds.
In this case we’re looking at well over 1GHz! You’ll have to keep reading to find the actual numbers though. Before we get to features and specs I’ll let Gigabyte have a bit of space to talk about themselves
