High power consumption at full load
Needs matching highend hardware to appreciate fully
Abstract: Sometimes a surprise is nice. Other times it’s nice for things to go as planned for once.Compared to the HD 4800 series launch, AMD’s launch of the HD 5800 series today is going to fall into the latter category. There are no last-minute announcements ...
Best singleGPU performance, Huge improvement, nearly 100% over 4870, Insignificant idle power, low noise allaround, DirectX 11, First!
High power consumption at full load, Needs matching highend hardware to appreciate fully
Better adaptive anti-aliasing, better video playback, better performance, and priced in reach for anyone who wants one--seriously, for less than four hundred dollars, given how cheap everything else is now, anyone can afford it--the HD 5870 is the card...
Holy Cow this is a fast card. AMD has managed to make the fastest single-GPU card out there by a large margin. With full DX11-support as well as better support for OpenCL, not to mention using less power than most other cards we cannot see any major f...
You know, whenever new hardware arrives that Im really excited about I always try to find some sort of catchphrase or one-liner to capture the moment and position the product; and just when writing this conclusion, The Doors pops into my mind -- Ride...
Across the board the performance of ATI's new Radeon HD 5870 was relatively consistent. You can expect similar performance from the Radeon HD 5870 as you might see from a Radeon HD 4870 X2 with the advantage of avoiding devastating the frame rates in g...
Generally, when a product of this magnitude debuts, you hear polar opposite opinions of it—one from the company selling it, and another from that company’s competitor. ATI thinks that DirectX 11, stream computing, and Eyefinity are the ultimat...
We are very satisfied with ATI Radeon HD 5870 and its features, although we are aware that this is not top-class product. It is obvious that an HD 5870X2 stands behind product under codename

Not the best price/performance, Tends to be noisy under load, Not much overclocking potential on our sample, Long card, might not fit all cases, DirectX 11 wont be relevant for quite a while, No support for CUDA / PhysX
AMD definitely surprised me, and pretty much everybody else with their new products. I neither expected such a big performance increase, nor many of the other new features that AMD has put in their card. Looking at pure performance numbers, one has to ...
To us, it sounds like AMD is serious about being the leader in new gaming technology, at least on the GPU side of things. AMD has been driving forth the point that the ATI Radeon HD 5870 is a gamers’ video card; it makes no excuses for that. AMD&rsq...
The ATI Radeon HD 5870 is the fastest single GPU graphics card that we have ever tested by any manufacturer and has some new features like Eyefinity that are icing on the cake!...
