XFX introduced XFX Radeon HD 4890 XXX Edition graphics card based on ATI chipset. The Radeon HD 4890 is presently ATI’s single fastest GPU and in stock form, a HD 4890 card will be clocking in at 850MHz at the core and 3900MHz DDR at the memory. This card from XFX, however, is doing 900MHz at the core while keeping to the reference memory clock speed. It might not seem much on paper, but in our tests, it was able to increase performance by between 5 to 10%. For some benchmark with Crysis Warhead, the scores were significantly better than NVIDIA’s competing GeForce GTX 260 Core 216. Far Cry 2 was very playable with frame rates in excess of 40fps even at a resolution of 1920 x 1440 with 4x anti-aliasing enabled.
