Is the OC 7970 OC version being made?

Fudzilla reported that AMD is thinking of bringing a faster Radeon HD 7970 graphics card to life. The Tahiti XT core, the soul of the new cannon, easily reaches the 1 GHz clock, but for some instances, the 1200 MHz operating frequency is no problem either.

There are indications that work is already underway in the background to create the turbocharged HD 7970, but no decision has yet been made on the name and technical parameters. Nor do AMD partners sit on their laurels: PowerColor HD 7970 Vortex, XFX Radeon 7970 Black Edition, Gigabyte HD 7970 Windforce 3x and Super Overclock. The members of the ornate list have exceeded / will exceed the performance of the reference solution, the savior of the XFX did not stop up to 1300 MHz after the software voltage increase. The results of MyDrivers also reveal a lot about the spare parts for the graphics processor, in which the GPU has jumped up to 1700 MHz using hardware voltage boost and liquid nitrogen.

AMD is looking forward to the next-generation GeForce (NVIDIA Kepler) family of cards and will adapt its high-end products accordingly. Because the Tahiti XT chip still has significant reserves, there are now relatively many options for engineers.
