The Most powerful card on the planet
02/06/2010
This review is from: HIS Radeon HD 5970 (Hemlock) 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Dual GPU Onboard CrossFire Video Card w/ Eyefinity H597F2GDG
Pros:
Fast , Powerful and Fast. This card eats up games and spits them out without breaking a sweat. Crysis didnt stand a chance when i ran it with all eye candy turned up. The card is Insanely fast and I haven't overclocked it yet. Don't think i need to.
If you are in the market for a card , make the sacrifice and get this card....it'll run you 2 years and you got lots of headroom. I am planning to get another one in a couple of months and crossfire them.
Cons:
Length. Its not a con for me as I have an Antec P193 case. Fits easily in my case with room to spare, but for most people , please do your measurements inside your case before getting this beast.
Overall Review:
It'll be a long time before Nvidia gets something out that compete with this card. Forget Fermi folks, The raw manufacturing cost of each GF100 to Nvidia is more than double that of ATI's Cypress. And nvidia next problem with fermi is power. The demo cards at CES was pulling 280w. 280W power draw means it is almost impossible for Nvidia to put out a dual card with all units active.
