A couple of weeks ago on launch day we looked at the Radeon 5870 and found it to be a very impressive card. It combined excellent performance in today’s games with a great set of features which will be useful in future titles. Today we have a follow-up article where we will look at the 5870 offerings from a selection of ATI’s partners as well as the 5850 to see which cards are worth your hard earned cash.

Lange wurden die neue Grafikkarten Radeon HD 5870 und HD 5850 basierend auf dem RV870 erwartet. Lange? Nun betrachtet man den Zeitraum, den die Radeon HD 4890 als High-End Karte den Platz an der Sonne genießen durfte war die Wartezeit nicht gerade lang: 6 Monate bildete sie die Spitze der Single-GPU Grafikkarten. Doch Ende September musste sie die Krone an die HD 5870 abgeben, aber wie: 40nm Fertigung, GDDR5-Speicher, DirectX 11, verbesserte Stromsparmechanismen, ein leiser Referenzlüfter, Eyefinitiy, verbesserte Bildqualität, verdoppelte Recheneinheiten, es gibt keinen Bereich in dem die HD 5870 der HD 4890 nicht deutlich überlegen ist. In diesem Artikel möchten wir uns jedoch die Radeon HD 5850, quasi die kleine Schwester der HD 5870, ansehen. Mit ebenfalls allen Vorteilen der HD 5870, etwas weniger Leistung aber zu Kampfpreisen ab 200 Euro ist sie besonders interessant. Unser Exemplar von XFX musste dabei den üblichen Testparcour über sich ergehen lassen und sollte für einige Überraschungen sorgen.

AMD has leap-frogged NVIDIA by launching the DirectX 11 compatible Radeon HD 5870 video card. Armed with 1600 shader cores, the 40nm Cypress GPU claims to push video game frame rates well-beyond what NVIDIA offers from their GeForce GTX 285 counterpart. While the list of DirectX 11 video games has just started to grow, with one of the first being a free Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game (MMORPG) named Battle Forge. Perhaps ATI has created the perfect storm for their Radeon HD 5800-series by offering a price-competitive graphics card with several free games included or available. While NVIDIA toils away with CUDA and PhysX, ATI is busy delivering the next generation of hardware for the gaming community to enjoy. In this article, Benchmark Reviews compares the Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 video card, model 21161-00-50R, against a cross-section of modern graphics accelerators.

A few weeks ago we looked at the launch of the Radeon 5870 and followed it up with a look at the 5850 and various partner cards last week. The new 5800 series impressed us thanks to its excellent performance and features such as full support for DirectX 11. In fact, it is probably fair to say that in the high end market there is really no competition for the Radeon 5800s right now. In the mainstream segment things were not quite as clear cut though, Nvidia and ATI both provide some value packed products with each having its own selling points.

Today we are looking at the Zotac GeForce GTX 285 AMP! Edition 1GB graphics card. This is a high end card from Zotac and features 1gb of GDDR3 memory, comes with a 5 year warranty and also comes supplied with a free copy of GRID, the game.

Mit der Radeon HD 5750 schauen wir uns nun die zweite Mid-Range-Karte der neuen DirectX-11-Generation von ATi an. Wie wird sich die Karte gegenüber die Konkurrenz schlagen? Um dies herauszufinden, haben wir ein Testsample in unser Testlabor eingeladen, was wir nun auf Hertz und Nieren überprüfen werden.

Today we have Gigabytes GTX 275 Super Overclock in our labs which takes nVidia's GTX275 to a whole new level. To make things even more interesting we have paired this impressive card with Nvidias 3D Vision kit, today we see if the latest development in display technology is ready for the mainstream market.

Am Anfang einer Grafikkartenserie stehen zum einen die Karte selbst und dann natürlich der dazugehörige Kühler, stets in der Referenz gehalten und meist gerade ausreichend für den Alltag. Doch viele PC-Nutzer sind längst weit über den so genannten Alltag hinaus, besonders im Bereich Gaming ist es daher von höchster Not, dass die Ingenieure der Hersteller hinter der Bühne das Kühlerdesign weiterentwickeln. Hier muss eine Grafikkarte meist mehrere Stunden am Stück Höchstarbeit leisten was sich durch den Referenzkühler meist in beachtlich hohen Temperaturen oder einer entsprechenden Lautstärke widerspiegelt.

OK, we're through playing nice with these new ATI 5xxx video cards. The corporate logo for XFX says: "play hard.", so Benchmark reviews is going to take that motto to heart and show what this cards can really do. Almost every single competing card runs at higher than reference clock rates, and they all come that way from the factory. Every single card I compared the HD5770 to, when we reviewed the reference design from ATI, was factory overclocked. That's just the way it is with video cards built on mature GPU technology. Well, every ATI 5xxx card can easily be overclocked using the standard driver package from ATI, Catalyst Control Center, since it includes ATI Overdrive. So let's do it, let's compare apples to apples, and as a bonus, I'll throw in some CrossfireX results, too.
