During its 30 Years of Gaming and Graphics event on Saturday, AMD announced the Radeon R9 285, the newest addition to the company’s lineup of desktop graphics cards.As noted by Tom’s Hardware, the R9 285 is based around AMD’s Tonga Pro GPU: The board features a clock speed of 918MHz, and a memory speed of 5.5Gbps. Put it all together and you have a board that can deliver up to 3.29 teraFLOPS of computing performance.The R9 285 is a 190-watt PCI Express 3.0 board, and requires a pair of six-pin power connectors. As Tom’s Hardware points out, this compares favorably to the 250-watt power draw of the R9 285’s predecessor, the R9 280.To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here
