Dual-core nuclear bomb dares to overclock

Dual-core nuclear bomb dares to overclock
The power consumption of AMD R9 295X2 has reached 500W. All computing units of the two cores are fully powered, and the core maximum frequency has reached an astonishing 1018MHz. It seems to have reached its limit, but there is no limit to what can be achieved, and there is even an overclocked version.
Sapphire, a big brand of A-cards, bravely launched a limited edition "R9 295X2 OC Limited Edition", which raised the core maximum frequency to 1030MHz, the single-precision floating point performance to 11.5TFlops (11.5 trillion times per second), and the memory frequency was also increased from the public version of 5GHz to 5.2GHz. The increase is not huge, but it is crazy for this level of card.


What is also surprising is that the R9 295X2 currently on the market comes in a regular paper box that is only slightly larger, while the Sapphire one looks like it will be directly provided with a metal password box, which is the one that comes with the test samples.
Limited edition + overclocking + password box, this obviously means that it will be very, very expensive, far more than 10,999 yuan.
Currently in China, the standard version of R9 295X2 from Yingtong, MSI, HIS, Sapphire, and PowerColor are all on the market, and the price is 10,999.
