XFX was the first to send us a retail sample of the HD4890, and today we have their overclocked edition with us. The XFX 4890 Black Edition sports an impressive core clock speed of 1GHz, as well as the memory clocked at 1GHz, which gives us an effective bandwidth of 4GB/s of GDDR5 memory. This alone should give us a good performance boost over a stock HD4890.
