AMD’s flagship graphics card, the Radeon 4890, has become the first graphics card to be factory clocked at 1 GHz. Overclockers have had 1 GHz+ cards for years, but this is the first time in history that a factory clocked card came with a standard 1000 MHz clock, which of course, means that it’s covered by the warranty — something which user-overclocked cards are not.

The card, made by Sapphire, also features a 1100 MHz GDDR5 memory clock and a new cooling system to deal with all the heat a 1GHz CPU generates. No information on pricing/availability was released, but you can expect to pay a premium for the bragging rights.
