MSI today announced their latest 40 nanometer AMD Radeon HD 4770 GPU-based graphics card, the MSI R4770 series. In contrast to the traditional 55 or 65 nanometer graphics processors, the MSI R4770 is using the brand new 40 nanometer graphics processor allowing the overall design to dramatically reduce the space being occupied by the power circuitry and pipelines. This effectively results in improved power efficiency and also brings about a better signal quality. The brand new 40 nanometer process graphics processor combined with high-speed GDDR5 memory truly make the MSI R4770 an astoundingly powerful graphics card.
MSI R4770 uses the ATI PowerPlay technology to implement a dynamic power management function. Even under full load and power consumption is at its peak, the MSI R4770 graphics card won’t consume more than 90 Watts, putting it far upfront the competition. The MSI R4770 supports latest UVD 2.0 hardware decoding technology, which fully replaces CPU utilization during Blu-ray disc playback.
