ASUS announced the "best" passive card on the market
With its new HD 6770 DirectCU Silent card, ASUS is launching a high-performance graphics card.
The DirectX® 11-compatible ASUS HD 6770 DirectCU Silent cards feature 800 stream processors and 40 texturing units, as well as 1GB of GDDR5 video memory. This is enough for high-definition games as well, with details and effects set to medium or even higher - something that has been almost unattainable with quiet cards so far. The pure copper heat pipes connect directly to the GPU, and the heat sinks have a larger surface area than the reference cards, making DirectCU Silent cards cooler than traditional passive cards. The result: greater stability, performance, durability and more space for overdriving. That’s why the HD 6770 DirectCU Silent is a great choice for those who want a quiet environment, yet don’t want to reduce the graphics quality of their games.
The graphics card has "only" 4 GHz GDDR5 memories,
which can affect performance.

It should be noted that the novelty's graphics processor has not been clocked down, so it comes with the same architecture and operating frequency as the reference HD 6770. The domestic release is expected in the second half of September, the recommended end-user price is HUF 38.
