We've talked with some top ATI guys today and they wanted to make it clear that for the time being there won't be any overclocked Radeon HD 4770.
As you can read here, Asus obviously jumped the gun disobeying ATI’s instructions and naturally this made a huge reaction from people like Sapphire, XFX and other ATI partners that would like to overclock their own cards.
Today, ATI doesn’t want to see any overclocked card, but
this might change in the future, as overclocking potential is there. ATI just recently started letting its partners overclock,
but the big issues here is if Asus starts shipping such an overclocked
products, the others will want to do the same, and ATI loses control.
We believe that this decision is strategic as it can offer
second sales wave once the overclocked cards are eventually introduced, and Nvidia often
uses the same strategy. One thing is clear, there won’t be any overclocked
HD 4770 anytime soon.
