CONCLUSION

   Having finished all the tests it's now quite easy to see that the latest Radeon HD 7770 iCooler 1GB GHz edition by HIS is in fact perhaps the single graphics card around the USD100 price range which I’d choose if i couldn't go any higher. Of course placing it up against the high-end mGPU GeForce GTX 590 3GB may not seem fair but aside the fact that the GTX 590 is currently running our primary test rig 24/7 it's also a good reference point to see just how good the Radeon HD 7770 (or any card) really is. The new cooler HIS used with their iCooler line is not really new and is basically the same found with reference design ones. However they did use a different type of fan which according to them is a lot less noisy than the stock one (having reviewed plenty of HIS cards in the past i believe them). Overclocking was very easy and although we only managed to squeeze 3-5fps in some games still it's free so why not?

   You can currently find the HIS Radeon HD 7770 iCooler 1GB GHz Edition for around USD135 inside the USA and 125Euros inside the EU a price tag which puts it right next to the cheapest Radeon HD 7770's in the market. Overall the HIS Radeon HD 7770 iCooler 1GB GHz Edition delivers a very good performance punch especially if you take into consideration its price tag, low noise/power consumption levels and PCIex 3.0/DX 11.1 compatibility. Certainly it can't compete with the more high end 68xx/69xx/78xx/79xx lines of AMD cards but if you are on a very tight budget and you are looking for the best price/performance ratio around the USD100 mark then the Radeon HD 7770 iCooler 1GB GHz Edition by HIS is the way to go.
