ASUS Matrix Radeon HD 7970 Platinum Review
There is a reason ASUS is so well respected amongst PC enthusiasts. The company has been making some of the best-performing, most feature-rich products in the space for years. Whether it's a min-ITX motherboard, sleek Ultrabook, or a full-fledged, touch-enabled All-In-One system, ASUS has highly competitive products that are worthy of consideration. It's not just about performance and features, though. ASUS has also been a long-time innovator willing to release relatively low-volume products that cater to ultra, hardcore-enthusiasts. Such is the case with the ASUS ROG Matrix 7970 Platinum edition graphics card we'll be showing you here today. As its name suggests, the ASUS ROG Matrix 7970 Platinum is a member of the company's \"Republic of Gamers” series of products, designed for—you guessed it--gamers. The card is powered by an AMD Radeon HD 7970 GPU, but the similarities between plain vanilla 7970s and the ASUS ROG Matrix 7970 Platinum end there. This card is about as custom as you can get and it has features you won't find on any run-of-the-mill product.

Some people may not desire to have anything super fancy, and these average-line models will suit them just fine. However for those who want the best, most feature-rich and overclockable card, ASUS has released its Matrix HD 7970 Platinum 3GB video card.
