Club 3D 7870 Joker XT Edition Review

[Soda-88]

It's been so long since I've seen Club3D cards... I actually had their Ati Radeon 9600XT paired up with AMD Athlon XP 2500+ (Barton; OCed to 3200+), it was amazing for what it costed me. Good to see them doing well with 7000 series

Club3d has really made some impressive products since i've been following them over the past few months. Shame they aren't in the US yet.

Really nice card from amd & club3d.

And someone I know just bought a 660 a few days ago, ah well.

True freakin story... I would love to get my hands on one o these cards for my Troll build I'm working on, but it seems the only tahiti LE card I can find stateside (atm) is the PowerColor branded card, and the heatsink on that one looks questionable at best. reviews peg the temps as being appropriately high as well -_-.

Also, anyone got any ideas as to water block compatibility with this card? Kind of an oddball, so I would suspect that one doesn't exist (unless you get a GPU-only block)

Found this on Amazon I hope, can someone confirm (preferably Tom) that this is the right one.

yeah the joker one is taihiti le. besides it says it has 1536 stream processors, regular 7870 has 1280.

You can also tell by the XT at the end of 7870XT. That's how most companies will be listing them.

Limited edition non-reference cards - I very much doubt anyone will be making waterblocks for these I'm afraid. I've checked cooling configurator and EK have no plans to make one for any of the 7870XTs.

Would be a lovely upgrade for my aging 6850... Don't really have the money for anything other than crossfre now though x.x

Did you order one of those? I would like to know what you got, if you got?

Because i'm looking at getting one of these pretty soon, and they're out of stock on the Kuston PC site that is linked in the review.

It seems to be a real joker in this price! I hope it will be on shelves here too.

I got mine a couple of days after I ordered it. Got it from the site TTL said about. Kustom PC or something, Do you find that the fan it loud on 60%? & also does auto fan speeds make the card get too hot?

Mine clocked at 1150 on the GPU and 1550 on the ram it is quite loud but not as bad as my old xfx 5870 that was way louder than the 7870 on 60% manual fan speed. The cooler is brilliant 32 degrees on idle
