PowerColor Hellhound Radeon RX 9070 Review @ Vortez

When it comes to AMD video card makers, a few names come to mind and PowerColor is often at the top of the list.  Many would argue that their cards are not really "that good" but nobody would argue about the success of their marketing.  

Names like "Devil" and "Hellhound" are just awesome to say, especially when you are talking up your build at the local LAN or tech gathering.

What bothers me is that, when you start diving into the details you quickly realize that much of the marketing is fluffy pluff.  Take for instance this quote.

Powercolor’s Hellhound Radeon RX 9070 OC Edition arrives with a 70MHz factory overclock to 2.59 GHz, as well as augmented cooling in the form of a dual-slot triple-fan solution with long heatsink and Honeywell PTM7950 phase-change thermal pads.

A 70Mhz overclock, OMG call in the fire department!!
