Users can easily switch between standard mode and overclocking mode by pressing a little switch found on video card’s rear panel. Palit Radeon HD 4870 Sonic Dual Edition has 512 MB GDDR5 and uses a cooler featuring three heatpipes and two fans, an 80 mm in charge of cooling the GPU and the memory chips, and other 70 mm in charge of cooling the VRM.
