First topic message reminder :

i need your recommendation:

1. SAPPHIRE RADEON HD 5870 1GB 256-BIT GDDR5 PCI EXPRESS 2.0 X16 HDCP READY CROSSFIRE SUPPORTED VIDEO

SAPPHIRE HD 5970 OC, the fastest graphics card – ever!

World leading graphics supplier, SAPPHIRE Technology, now introduces the world’s fastest graphics card, the SAPPHIRE HD 5970 OC Edition. With twice the computing power of the highly acclaimed SAPPHIRE HD 5870, the new HD 5970 model shares all the exciting features of this family – including support for the DirectCompute 11 instruction set of Microsoft DirectX 11, hardware tessellation and multi threaded communication with the system CPU. It also supports the acceleration of applications supported by ATI Stream, and the ability to display across three monitors simultaneously with ATI Eyefinity. The SAPPHIRE HD 5970 OC Edition ships with enhanced clock speeds of 735MHz core and 1010MHz (4.04GHz effective) - faster than the standard model, making the SAPPHIRE HD 5870 OC the fastest card in its class, and the fastest in the world*. Enthusiasts will also be able to tune performance of these SAPPHIRE cards using the SAPPHIRE Redline voltage tweaker tool** to enable higher levels of overclocking. With 2GB of fifth generation GDDR5 memory and a new architecture with a total of 3200 stream processors and 160 texture units the SAPPHIRE HD 5970 OC is lightning fast with existing DirectX10.1, DirectX 10 and DirectX 9.0 games and applications, and will support stunning new levels of detail, transparency and lighting effects in new releases of software using DirectX 11. All of this comes with a modest active power consumption and ATI Powerplay Dynamic Power Management to achieve super-low power consumption in 2D and idle modes. These cards incorporate the latest architectural features from the ATI division of AMD in order to fully support Microsoft DirectX 11, including DirectCompute 11 instructions, hardware Tessellation and multi-threaded communications with the system CPU. These combine to provide new capabilities such as the interaction between transparent objects, new lighting and accelerated post processing effects as well as supporting ATI Stream for accelerating applications such as video transcoding.

no, this pwns NvidiaGTX295 numbers, this is the fastest card up to date, specially if they fixed its current drivers.. and unless Nvidia starts showing us its Fermi platform and stop its paperweight to the tech media i would be glad to see another gpu competition.

the Sapphire HD 5970 OC version; (735mhz from 725Mhz) 10Mhz increase is 'effing joke, OC fail for me.. you can't even feel this additional 10mhz in real time gaming

what we should wait is its Toxic or Vapor-X version

ask lang po..

migrating from gts 250 1gb ddr3 to Ati HD6820 1gb ddr5..

rendered one same scene pero sa timing nya, mabiis pa ng 3min ang 250..
newbie sa Ati baka kailangan ko ng new drivers ng catalyst?
stable lang sya sa max2010=)

ang pantapat sa ATI 5970 is GTX 580..
still powerful ang ATI but performance parin ang nvidia
