Sapphire Radeon HD 3690 tested in China

Back over at CHIPHELL in China, one of their forum users has managed to get their hands on a 55nm and DX 10.1 based mid-range Sapphire Radeon HD 3690 graphics card.

AMD has just announced the HD 3650, 3450 and 3470 yesterday which should begin selling very soon if not already but it is so far unclear when the faster HD 3670 and 3690 models will go on sale.


As you can see from the screenshot above, the user Tristiania ran a default run of 3DMark06 which scored just over 8000 points using an Intel E6600 processor clocked at 3GHz.

As far as the specs go, the core clock comes in at 702MHz and the 256MB of GDDR-3 memory running on a 128-bit bus is clocked at 1692MHz DDR.
