Today however we have something special in mind for our readers. The new Sapphire HD5770 Flex Edition which can support up to four monitors via ATI Eyefinity. Sapphire have managed to achieve this by using three DVI connections – one being an HDMI to DVI adapter. The card itself operates at 850 mhz core and 1200mhz (4800mhz effective) on the GDDR5 memory.
It is hard to believe that KitGuru only opened a month ago, we have been working around the clock to ensure that we review the hottest products on the market … even if some of them have been out for a while. Today we are going to look at the Sapphire HD5770 Vapor X, which on paper looks to be one of the finest HD5770’s available. The Sapphire card comes with a very modest 10mhz increase on the core, raised from 850mhz to 860mhz.
The AMD 5xxx series has been a resounding success, dominating the mid/high range sector since it was released many months ago. We wouldn’t be the Guru’s of Kit we proclaim to be if we didn’t take a look at one of the sexiest 5850’s on the market – The Sapphire HD5850 Toxic Edition. This card was released several months ago and is a complete redesign of the AMD reference edition design.
Die von Sapphire entwickelten Toxic Grafikkarten mit veränderten Taktraten und eigenständigen Kühllösungen sind weiterhin ein fester Bestandteil im Portfolio des Grafikkarten-Spezialisten. In der Technic3D Redaktion fand sich die HD 5850 Toxic mit 2GB Videospeicher ein, die es gilt, in den einzelnen Bereichen wie Performance, Kühlung, Lautstärke und zu guter Letzt der realen Leistungsaufnahme, der Konkurrenz gegenüberzustellen. Wie sich „Le Bleu“ in unserem Testlauf schlägt oder gar in der Vorrunde ausscheidet, steht im nachfolgenden Testbericht.
AMD stellte die HD5870 Grafikkarten vor und auf Anhieb darf sie sich als schnellste Single Grafikkarte betrachten. Der Wehrmutstropfen jedoch bleibt die Verfügbarkeit. Selbst Redaktionen blieben außen vor und erhielten nicht ausreichend Samples. Da macht die vorgestellte Dual Grafikkarte HD 5970 keine Ausnahme. Immerhin konnte Sapphire uns mit einem zweiten Modell für einen Test beliefern und zeigt ihre Version der HD 5870 mit Vapor-X Kühlung und erhöhten Taktraten.
Die Umbenennung und das Entfernen des Zusatzes „X2“ für Dual-Grafikkarten in der Namensgebung ist mit dem Erscheinen der HD5970 Dual Grafikkarte passé. Mit der HD5970 Grafikkarte hat AMD neben der schnellsten Single-Karte nun auch die Dual-Grafikkarten Riege vorerst in fester Hand. Was die HD5970 leisten kann und was die Lautstärke sowie reale Leistungsaufnahme zu Tage bringt, zeigt der nachfolgende Testbericht anhand der Sapphire OC Version.
Sapphire Technologies have always had a keen eye on the media enthusiast, and Kitguru has reviewed many of their discrete solutions within the last year. We particularly enjoyed their last generation HD5670 Ultimate Edition, which we also reviewed in a CrossfireX configuration shortly afterwards. In recent months they also released a passively cooled HD 6670 ‘Ultimate’ Edition which proved popular within the HTPC sector. Today we are looking at their latest card which features a single slot, low profile cooler to target an even wider audience.
Sapphire today announced their low profile compatible, single slot Radeon 6670. We have one on our test bench and will be looking at its performance in the latest titles, including Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3 and Skyrim as well as video tasks to find out how well it fits the needs of gamers and media enthusiasts.
For most of us the AMD HD6990 is a pipe dream, the cost is very hard to justify. Let’s not forget that unless you are gaming at super high resolution or across multiple screens it is often not needed. With the recent release of nVidia’s GTX550 ti, AMD have decided to update their popular HD5770, with the new HD6790 targeting the £120 sector. Today we are looking at the custom Sapphire HD6790 model which features an enhanced heatpipe cooler and PCB design.
AMD’s HD6850 series was released to a warm public reception, combining great performance, low power drain and very competitive pricing. KitGuru recently reviewed the XFX HD6850 Black Edition and today we are looking at Sapphire’s overclocked competitor- the HD6850 Toxic Edition.
