About This Product
The ASUS HD 6870 DirectCU is an AMD Radeon HD 6870 GPU with 1GB GDDR5 VRAM. It offers entry-level gaming performance suitable for older titles at 1080p or less demanding games at 720p. This card is best suited for budget builds or as a placeholder for basic display output, as its performance is significantly outclassed by modern integrated graphics.
