ATI Radeon HD 5830 Review
A bit later than expected, the third and final model from AMD’s current top-class offer, as far as single-GPU cards are concerned, arrived to our doorstep. As a reminder, Radeons HD 5850 and 5870 appeared way back at the end of September last year, being the first DirectX 11 cards on the market, but also the most powerful ones. The new HD 5830 is a bit late, but just on time to spoil Nvidia’s plans concerning the release of their first DirectX 11 models. This card’s attractive price point should make the choice easier for many, as those who thought that the previous DirectX 11 Radeons were too expensive now have a good reason to opt for AMD. Check out the entire review here (Reviews/Graphics-cards/Radeon-HD-5830-A-New-Best-Buy-in-Sight.html)!
