ASUS Radeon EAH5850

Written by Rob Williams on November 16, 2009 In AMD-Based GPU

If we had an award for the "best bang for the buck", it would require little thinking to give it to ATI's Radeon HD 5850. For the price, it offers incredible power, superb power consumption, and of course, DirectX 11 support. We're taking a look at ASUS' version here, which along with Dirt 2, includes a surprisingly useful overclocking tool.


Sapphire Radeon HD 5870 Vapor-X

Written by Rob Williams on November 9, 2009 In AMD-Based GPU

It's no secret that the Radeon HD 5870 is the fastest GPU on the planet, but what do you get when you take it, toss in a more robust cooler, quieter operation, higher clock speeds and not one, but two free games? You get the Vapor-X, from Sapphire. Despite all that it packs in above the reference version, it modestly carries just a $20 premium.


ATI Radeon HD 5770 - DirectX 11 for the Masses

Written by Rob Williams on October 13, 2009 In AMD-Based GPU

AMD may have released its first Evergreen GPUs mere weeks ago, but don't think it's slowing down for anybody. The company has followed-up with its first mid-range parts, belonging to the HD 5700 series. Performance is much more modest on these new cards, but no features have been scrapped. It's all here... DirectX 11, Eyefinity and more.

Have just $100 to splurge on a new graphics card? Is having low power consumption and low temperatures important to you? If so, the HD 4770 certainly deserves your attention. This budget card handled each one of our games at 1920x1080 just fine, overclocks like a dream and has power and temp numbers worth drooling over.


Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 Vapor-X 2GB

Written by Rob Williams on May 4, 2009 In AMD-Based GPU

Believe it or not, despite the HD 4890's launch last month, the HD 4870 is still totally relevant, thanks to ATI's current pricing structure. There's a card for every budget, and if you're willing to spend around $180, you can get hooked up with a 1GB version of the card we're taking a look at today. It's silent, keeps cool, and still delivers great performance for the money.
