Press release

VIP Computer Centre Ltd (VIP), the UK's leading independent distributor of computer components and peripherals, today announced it is stocking the ATI RadeonTM HD 4870X2 from ASUS, hailed as the fastest graphics card in the world!

Leaving the pack behind like a distant memory, the ASUS EAH4870X2/HTDI/2G offers everything a hardcore gamer could need and a little bit extra thrown in just for fun.  Essentially, the HD 4870X2 is a high-end gaming card based upon the latest AMD graphics technology and spiced up with a kick of power and performance, actually twice the power and twice the performance of the ATI RadeonTM HD 4870.

Jam packed with a massive 2.4 teraFLOPS of compute power and 1600 stream processors, the HD 4870X2 will swallow up the most intense 3D games with ease and ruthlessly spit them out for a truly cinematic gaming experience.  All of this, teamed up with 2GB of GDDR5 memory and an ultra-high memory bandwidth of 230GB/sec, leaves gamers of all levels with no excuse. 

Furthermore, the latest Blu-ray and HD movies are upscaled to a visually striking 1080p resolution and beyond with PIP capabilities.

Matthew Parrish, Product Manager at VIP, commented: "AMD have produced some excellent products during the summer and the new ATI RadeonTM HD 4870X2 is no exception. Asus can give retailers the full benefit of the great innovation coming out of the graphics market at the moment, as they are one of the only graphics card manufacturers who are partners of both AMD and Nvidia, giving them a truly complete product range"
