The HIS X700 Pro IceQ Turbo VIVO 256MB PCIe Video Card


Introduction and Product Specifications

One of the major up and comers in the video card industry is HIS.  In recent months, HIS has garnered some attention with several impressive additions to their product line.  They put a major emphasis on overclocking, cooling and stability, while providing competitive performance.  With such innovations as oversized, yet quiet cooling solutions and the ability to monitor and throttle fan speeds based on temperature, HIS is catering to enthusiasts who don't like to compromise.

Today, we are going to take a look at the HIS X700 Pro IceQ Turbo 256MB PCIe Video Card.  Building on their experience with previous IceQ models, HIS introduces something new with this product, namely iTurbo.  Along with a solid cooling package, iTurbo allows for instantaneous overclocking, while staying within pre-determined limits HIS has designated for the card.  Let's take a closer look and see what HIS has to offer this time around.
