In this review I will test a video card from AXLE, which sports the latest low end GPU from Nvidia, the GeForce 210. In the tests it will go against a RADEON HD 4550 and will see which one wins in terms of overall performance.
HTPCs and HD content are growing more and more around the GPU industry. ATI and NVIDIA have been working on technologies to playback and enhance this video content for many years. NVIDIA started working on their Purevideo technology and added the Purevideo HD some time ago. ATI on the other hand, has their own AVIVO technology and as it was obvious, they name their latest technology AVIVO HD.
ATIs Geschichte beginnt im Jahr 1985, also noch vor dem Mauerfall und lange bevor an Pixel-Shader und DDR-Speicher zu denken ist. Gegründet wird das Unternehmen am 20. August 1985 als ATI, eine Abkürzung für "Array Technology Industry", von den Auswanderern Kwok Yuen Ho (Chief Executive Officer bis zum Jahr 2004), Benny Lau und Lee Lau mit einem Startkapital von für heutige Verhältnisse bescheidenen 300.000 US-Dollar. Während Ho aus Guangzhou stammt, haben die beiden Brüder Lau ihre Wurzeln in Hong Kong. Alle drei eint, dass sie nach Kanada gekommen waren, um Arbeit zu finden. Frustriert über die aussichtslose Situation gründen sie schließlich ATI in Markham, Kanada.
Der Markt für Ati- und Nvidia-Grafikkarten ist für viele Anwender ein undurchsichtiger Dschungel. Damit Sie sich darin nicht verirren, gibt PC Games Hardware einen aktuellen Überblick über Tests und Kaufempfehlungen für Geforce- und Radeon-Beschleuniger. Nachdem Nvidia in den vergangenen Monaten Marktanteile zugunsten AMD/Atis verlor, ergreift der GPU-Spezialist aus Santa Clara nun Maßnahmen: Neben der Geforce GTX 465 sollen es Preissenkungen der GTX 480 und GTX 470 richten. Nvidias Spitzenmodell wurde in den vergangenen Wochen um 40 Euro günstiger und wechselt nun ab 440 Euro den Besitzer. Die Geforce GTX 470 kostet nur noch rund 300 Euro und ist damit etwa 60 Euro günstiger als die minimal schnellere Radeon HD 5870/1G.

RV740 is often misunderstood as the successor to RV730 which in fact is far from it. RV740 is expected to take the market by storm by Q2 next year as the best value/performance chip from AMD. It is AMD's first 40nm GPG chip with all IP being re-designed and characterized for 40nm. Due to its 40nm process, power consumption clearly will be much lower than HD 4830 yet faster. Performance of RV740 is estimated to be between HD 4830 and HD 4850.

Today we are looking at the ATI Radeon HD5750 1GB graphics card. This particular card utilizes the latest technology from AMD, as well as sporting the newest DirectX11 platform. It only requires one 6 pin PCI-Express adapter and is the cheapest card in AMD’s DX11 range.
With this latest release, ATI is doubling back to fill some gaps in its wildly successful Radeon HD5xxx series of video cards. The previous release, the HD5450, was the logical terminus of their GPU bisecting act. In fact, they got a little carried away, and lopped off almost all the Stream Processors, in order to reduce the power requirements down to the lowest possible level. This time, the goal was to create the best performing low-profile HTPC card they could. The HD5570 is the first in a series of HD55xx video cards, and for now, it will probably be the top card in the group. Loaded up with the Redwood GPU from the HD5670, 1 GB of GDDR3 memory, and an all copper active GPU cooler, the HD5570 looks to be the King of the low-profile world, without the attendant King's ransom. Follow along with Benchmark Reviews as we see how it stacks up against its siblings.
Just when I thought they had finished cutting halves, ATI has taken the 40nm Cypress architecture to a new low. Low power, that is. In a brand new design, unlike anything they have released with this architecture, ATI is going after the Home Theater PC market with their heat sinks blazing. OK, I exaggerate; the Radeon HD5450 video card actually runs pretty cool, which is the point, really. It's silent, too, with a large and lovely red heatsink sitting atop the tiny GPU, sans fan. Follow along with Benchmark Reviews as we investigate an early sample of ATI's new standard bearer for low-power HTPC applications.
ATI now dominates the graphics industry with their DirectX 11 Radeon HD 5000-series video cards, which allows them to enjoy current-generation gaming on Windows 7 and Vista. The ATI Radeon HD 5870 has already beat the worn and weathered GeForce GTX 285, just as the Radeon HD 5850 and HD5770 do at their respective price points. By combining two Cypress XT GPUs together on one PCB, the ATI ! Radeon HD 5970 video card will now compete against the very best NVIDIA can offer: the GeForce GTX 295. In this article, Benchmark Reviews tests the 'unlocked' Hemlock GPU against the top graphics products available and demonstrates just how much ground AMD has gained in a few short months.
Today we shall examine the dual-GPU card of the new generation based on two RADEON HD 5870 (Cypress) GPUs. The new solution differs by having core and memory clock rates reduced down to the ones of HD 5850 while the cores themselves are full-fledged.
