Wrapping up a card such as this is one of the easier jobs. After all I certainly don't have to go over the details of a ATI HD5850 again because by now you all know it's probably the best value single card for good gaming at sensible resolutions.The main...
Abstract: Over and above what we've already mentioned, the PowerColor Radeon HD 5800 series PCS+ cards are also competitively priced. In fact, the PowerColor Radeon HD 5850 PCS+ is currently the least expensive Radeon HD 5850 card..
From what we have seen today, the feature that should be most hyped on the PowerColor PCS+ HD5870 and HD5850 video cards are their thermal solutions. The PCS+ cooler does its job very well, and if the power utilization wasn’t as high as it was, we&r...

tarting with build quality the PowerColor 5850 PCS+ feels like a solid card, there are no loose sections on the heatsink or cooler and overall there is little to fault on this level. The design of the card is also good, offering an attractive take on t...
Powercolor have released a very competitively priced HD5850, being only £20 more than the reference design. Its cooler, quieter and faster … nuff said....
