Wie schlägt sich der Treiber gegenüber dem Vorgänger? Wir testen ihn an einer Radeon HD 5870 mit Hilfe unseres ausführ...
We knew it was only a matter of time till the latest Catalyst suite graced our desktops and here it is. It must be said that this looks to be quite a mean little driver set this month. We're not going to say much else at this point. Check out the performance improvements below along with some of the...
Getestet wurde die Sapphire Radeon HD 5770 Flex Grafikkarte. Sapphire bringt mit der Radeon HD 5770 Flex eine Grafikkarte auf den Markt, die drei Bildschirme ohne den sonst erforderlichen DisplayPort-Anschluss ansteuern kann. Ist der 3D-Beschleuniger damit eine gute Alternative für die, die mehr als...
The other day we had a look at the reference version of the HD 5550 GDDR5 model from ATI. Today we'll be having a look at a retail version from HIS; along with that we'll also be looking at the HD 5570 which has had the same treatment as its little brother, the HD 5550, with the addition of GDDR5 me...

Review of the Asus EAH5830 HD 5830 DirectCU Voltage Tweak Videocard. With a core overclock of 1027Mhz, the Asus EAH5830 DirectCU performs exactly as intended and the DirectCU cooler does an excellent job at keeping temperatures under control. There isn't much more you could ask out of a videocard. T...
The Super Overclock series from GIGABYTE is one of my personal favorite series and the main reason for this is that they're bringing the series to a wide range of budgets. The last generation of 200 series cards saw the higher end models get the treatment. In the HD 5000 series ATI range we've seen ...
Mit der ASUS ARES Dual Radeon 5870 4GB erreicht uns eine Grafikkarte der Superlative, die in Sachen Rohleistung nicht zu übertreffen sein sollte. Als Basis dieser in limitierter Stückzahl produzierten ASUS Eigenkreation dienen zwei mit 850 MHz getaktete Radeon HD 5870 Grafikchips. Für dieses Gespann...
The Sapphire HD 5770 FleX 1GB is essentially just another HD 5770. However, it's got a little bit of a twist in the sense that it supports up to four displays from a single card. This isn't anything new, though. For starters, PowerColor released an Eyefinity5 card which supported five monitors and A...
Getestet wurde die Zotac GeForce GTX 460 AMP! Grafikkarte. Nach GeForce GTX 470 und GeForce GTX 480 schickt sich Zotac an, auch die GeForce GTX 460 im Rahmen der AMP! Reihe gehörig aufzupolieren. Die Grafikkarte kommt mit einem 1.024 MB großen Speicher in den Handel, bietet ein anderes Kühlsystem un...
Like always, we gamers want more. Nvidia introduced a new way of playing games a few years ago that would put us right into the thick of our games. That new style of gaming was 3D, not only would we have a great game, but now we could play our games while we personally dodge all the carnage we just ...
We test and review the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 470 SOC edition. A really nice graphics card we can say right away. Gigabyte improved the PCB, applied 3-way fan cooling and overclocked the board. All facts combined created the Gigabyte GeForce GTX 470 SOC edition - Super Overclock. Under SKU code GV-N47...

Review of the Gigabyte Radeon HD 5770 Super Overclock video card. Gigabyte's Super Overclock series has always been known as being cutting edge in terms of features and clock speeds and it has now made the jump into a lower-end price segment. The HD 5770 already combines excellent performance with a...
Today we get to take a look at both the HD5550 and HD5570 in their standard reference card configuration to see if there is much of a difference. With a bump from the original DDR2 and DDR3 to GDDR5 on both its HD5550 and HD5570 cards ATI obviously hasn't forgotten about its budget models. We have t...
Zotac's GeForce GTX 480 Amp! Edition was designed to address some of the issues found in NVIDIA's reference design. One look and it's easy to see that this is an extreme graphics card, made for hardcore enthusiasts. What makes us say that? With a core frequency of 756MHz, 1512MHz shaders, and 950MHz...
ZOTAC's new GTX 460 Amp! Edition is the highest clocked GTX 460 version available right now. Its clock speeds of 810 MHz core and 1000 MHz memory ensure it delivers substantially improved performance over the GTX 460 reference design.

Getestet wurde ein GeForce GTX 470 SLI Gespann. Vor einigen Wochen hatten wir bereits die Gainward GeForce GTX 470 im Referenz-Design genauer unter die Lupe genommen und der Karte eine gute Preis/Leistung attestiert. In der Zwischenzeit haben zwei weitere GeForce GTX 470-basierte Grafikkarten den We...
Zotac hält neben der Standardkarte der Nvidia GeForce GTX 480 auch eine AMP Version im Portfolio. Und ohne zu viel vorweg zu nehmen, dieses Modell hat es wahrlich in sich. Wir haben die Karte zu einem Test in unser Labor eingeladen und gehen der Leistung, der Kühlung und dem ganzen Drumherum genauer...
XFX's reference based version of the HD 5830 overall a very good videocard capable of fast gaming while keeping costs down. The videocard performs exactly the same as all other HD 5830s tested and this is no surprise seeing it is based off ATI's reference design and PCB. But where this model differs...
SAPPHIRE Technology stellt mit der HD 5770 FleX die nächste Grafikkarte der HD 5000 Serie vor. Die SAPPHIRE HD 5770 FleX ist laut SAPPHIRE die erste Karte auf dem Markt, mit der sich ohne zusätzliche aktive Adapter drei DVI Monitore im ATI Eyefinity Modus betreiben lassen. Tolle Neuigkeiten für all ...
Eyefinity requires that you pick up an active adapter unless you are lucky enough to have a monitor with a display port connection. An active adapter can run you up to 100 USD unless you decide to go with a VGA model. Sapphire has introduced a cure for those budget minded gamers looking for their tr...
Mit der Zotac GeForce GTX 460 erreicht uns das Mittelklassemodell von Nvidia und ist als direkter Gegner des ATi 5830 Modells gedacht.

The idea of running multiple monitors for gaming has been a fantasy for games since gaming first came out. In the PC gaming world it has taken a long time to realize the full potential of the GPU and the limitation put on them from a single monitor setup. The amount of pixel pushing power in today's...
Review of the XFX Radeon HD 5770 1GB Single Slot edition graphics card. There are countless HD 5770 cards on the market these days but there has been very little to distinguish one from another. XFX has decided to break with the pack and has released a single slot HD 5770 which should appeal to peop...
Die Gigabyte GV-R587SO-1GD ist Gigabytes Weiterentwicklung der HD5870 und hat kaum noch etwas mit dem Referenzdesign von ATI gemein. Die Ingenieure von Gigabyte haben der 5870 SOC ein komplett neues PCB und nur die besten Elektronik Bausteine spendiert. Das Resultat ist eine Grafikarte, die bereits ...
Review of the ASUS EAH5870 V2 STALKER Edition Graphics Card.

The SLI GTX 460 768MB Cyclone setup has been the best valued SLI setup we've ever tested when it comes to out of the box performance. While we'll no doubt be able to increase the value of the setup even more through overclocking, how will it compare to some of the other single GPU cards we have?
