59Hardware.net - Recommended Award

"With continuous liquid frame rates in all tested games and a very good OpenCL performance HIS graphics card falls to positive. The clock speeds of GHz chips of the Radeon HD 7970, the manufacturer has only slightly increased, and unlike the competition, the video memory has stayed with 3 GB. The IceQ cooling is always efficient and keeps the GPU even in arduous conditions before the heat death. The enclosed adapter scope is limited to the bare minimum, with the tool iTurbo the values ​​of the graphics card can observe and control. The operating sound is beautifully restrained, but in general, the energy consumption is a little high. The good performance and low price make the card to our price-performance winner."

Pros: Build quality, Silent in charge, Performances, OC

Comptoir-hardware - Rated 5 out of 5

" The HIS 7970 IceQ X ² GHz Edition is a lot slimmer than its rival, therefore, from Asus. Instead of half their heatsink takes only two slots to complete. The cooling body consists of a block at the underside and on the upper side of two sitting three heat pipes. The black plastic cover has two honeycomb cutouts for the fan.
HIS offers iTurbo a software that allows the graphics card can overclock a button. Experts are of course in software manual overclocking features available.
If you can live with a slightly slower graphics card, although has less features, but has a quieter cooler, we recommend the HIS 7970 IceQ X ² GHz Edition, especially since this is significantly less expensive at 380 euros.
For beginners, the push-button overclocking is but a nice bonus. That the cards offer a lot of power, even before our test was foreseeable. "

Allround PC- Best Buy Award

Allround PC- Price-Performance-Winner

" With the currently highest base clock of 1150 MHz, after all the HIS card is in fact simply faster at computationally-heavy tasks properly and also is acting quieter..."

"The card is not only fast, but very quicking. "

Best Buy Award- Tom's Hardware

"The HIS Radeon HD 7970 IceQ X² GHz Edition is a fast and very silent graphics card, their own cooling system on top of that allows pleasantly cool temperatures. Even when overclocking, the pattern has not beaten badly.

Positive aspects of the HIS Radeon HD 7970 IceQ X² GHz Edition:
- Very quiet
- Good overclocking potential
- Strong cooling system" HardwareLuxx

"The three graphics cards from HIS we’ve covered in this review are interesting products in their respective categories. Each of them features an enhanced power system with high-quality durable components and an original high-performance cooler. The HIS 7970 IceQ X² GHz Edition, HIS 7950 IceQ X² Boost Clock and HIS 7850 IceQ Turbo X are also a little faster than the respective reference solutions due to pre-overclocked GPUs. Added to that are the reliable and informative packaging and the exclusive iTurbo utility. The graphics cards can please you with their looks, too. Although they are usually hidden from view inside the computer case, it is a real pleasure to just hold such a stylish product in your hands." xbitlabs

"- the large cooler does a really good job of cooling the HD 7970 chip.
- The HIS card uses HD7970 or the Tahiti chip produced with 28Nm production technology and AMDs Core Next architechture. Also 3GB memory ensures that the card does not run dry on memory anytime within the nearest future.
- The card comes with a great bundle.
- The HD 7970 chip is with the new driver update super fast. In fact it´s faster than the Nvidia GTX680, which costs around 500DKK more for a corresponding model in several test." HwT.dk - Gold Award

"HIS has put together a really nice video card here with the Radeon HD 7970 3GB IceQ X2. We're a huge fan of the cooler that HIS are using on its new high-end models and while this is of course not the first time we've seen the IceQ X2 cooler, it continues to impress us...While the IceQ X2 cooler is of course an extremely strong feature, the new iPower feature that HIS has bought to the table is also a very strong one that needs to be highlighted better." TweakTown - Best Performance Award

"The performance here is excellent and will beat a reference GTX 680. Framerates are very good at higher resolutions and image quality settings, with the 3GB of GDDR5 providing plenty of juice for high antialiasing in games.
Framerates are only part of the equation, however, and where HIS has really put together a killer card is with the IceQ X2 heatsink. This design is stunning in terms of keeping temperatures and noise levels impressively low." PureOverclock - Editors Choice

KitGuru

"The custom cooler on the card is remarkable, actually outperforming competitor coolers from Sapphire and ASUS." KitGuru - Worth Buying

"Still the AMD overclocked versions do offer nice performance gains and we consistently found that the 7970 IceQ X² GHz Edition was much faster than the standard 7970." Legion Hardware - Performance Award

"Add the fact that I managed to overclock the card easily above and beyond the factory overclock, the card was relatively quiet and that the cooler kept the temperatures below 70 degrees Celcius; it would appear that HIS has a really good card on it’s hands.

If I were to be in the market for a top performing Video Card (aren’t I always!), then the HIS 7970 IceQ X² GHz Edition would be at the top of my list." pcGameware - Gold Award

"It’s obvious and easy to have grasped our overall impression of the HIS HD 7970 IceQ X2 3GB GHz Edition, needless to say we think it’s amazing, and definitely one of the best cards out on the market to date. We wouldn’t just suggest buying the HD 7970, but we want to suggest you definitely purchase this specific brand for it, as HIS have done supremely well to make the visually impressive external design, along with the cooling ability they have achieved at the same time. HIS have really advanced this card.

It’s always great to be able to reference an ATI based card against its NVIDIA rival, and in this case that would be the GTX680. We are more than pleased to announce that it is better than the GTX680, and the card to splash out on." HardwareLOOK - Gold Award & Editor's Choice Award
