Released February, 2012
AMD Radeon HD 7770
- 1 GHz
- 1 GB GDDR5
6.5 Out of 10
by techPowerUp! (Feb, 2012)ASUS has decided to price their board at the AMD MSRP, so the added value is really added value over the reference design, since there is no price premium charged for it.

Released September, 2012
Colorful GeForce GTX 650
- 1.1 GHz
- 1 GB GDDR5
6.1 Out of 10
by techPowerUp! (Sep, 2012)Temperatures are super low due to a high fan speed, but this offers no tangible benefits to the user - a quieter fan would be better.Price-wise, the KFA² GTX 650 EX OC comes at NVIDIA's reference design price, which is nice given the custom cooler and small overclock out of the box.
