MSI are hitting us hard and fast with new models that have been standing out compared to the competition. No doubt this is the joys of working with both NVIDIA and ATI, though, because it seems that in the near future we'll get upgraded versions of the new GTX 400 series cards from the company, too.

Mit der Radeon HD 5870 Lightning hält MSI einen der interessantesten Vertreter der Art im eigenen Portfolio. Wie schlägt sich das neue Flaggschiff gegen das Referenzdesign? Das wollen wir in unserem Kurztest herausfinden, wobei neben den ATi-Karten natürlich auch der Vergleich zu einer GeForce GTX 480 nicht gescheut wird.

The HD 6670 is a bit of a funny model for us. Normally it's the kind of model we'd look at once when it launches and then not pay too much attention to it since our launch coverage would cover pretty much all you need to know about it.

At launch we saw that the HD 6850 was attacked straight away by partners due to AMD letting companies make their own design of the model. This is good for two reasons; the first is that come launch day we see a lot of companies offer a lot of different coolers. It just helps make everything a little different instead of looking at reference card over reference card.

MSI stellt mit der Radeon HD 6850 Cyclone Power Edition eine Grafikkarte vor, die ohne Umschweife die Beste ihrer Klasse werden soll. Ob das gelingt, klärt unser Test. Hilfreich für die Zielerreichung sollen nicht nur besondere Eigenschaften beim Übertakten sondern darüber hinaus ein zweites BIOS sein, das auf einen Silent-Betrieb getrimmt ist.

The HAWK series is one of my favorite, and that's mainly because it sits towards the top of the chart when it comes to what you can do with a card. At the bottom of the stack you've got your reference card. From there we introduce an overclock and over that you can start to look at custom cooling. Once you get out of that area, you're into cards like the HAWK and Lightning which utilize custom PCBs. That introduces the ability to gain an even higher overclock than other models, and when combined with MSIs own overclocking software, Afterburner, we can really reach for the skies.

Let’s see the performance of the new Radeon HD 6870 from MSI, which follows the AMD reference design and competes with the GeForce GTX 465.

It feels like it's been ages since I've tested a video card. Unfortunately I was then quick to realize that it's only been a little over a week, and became concerned that 10 days felt like an eternity. To get back into the swing of things, though, we fired up the HD 6950 from MSI which has just gotten the Twin Frozr II treatment.

"The Power Edition series is one that we don't hear a lot about from MSI, but it's a really good series for those hoping to get a bit more than the norm when it comes to overclocking. It's kind of a less hardcore version of the Lightning Series, but designed for higher end cards than we would normally see in the HAWK series.

I always seem to start these reviews by stating that the series of the card we're looking at is one of my favorite. It's not just some generic introduction and I really am a large fan of series' like the IceQ from HIS, Vapor-X from Sapphire, SOC from GIGABYTE and most of all, the MSI series including the Cyclone, HAWK and Lightning which we're looking at today.
