This review is from: SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 5830 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card w/ ATI Eyefinity Technology 100297L
Pros:
Very cheap.
Runs all my games at max settings with good fps.
Overclocked in catalyst control center to 875/1185, i have no need to go any higher even though ive heard of close to 1000/1200.
Cons:
Kind of large, my case is big enough but it has integrated cable ties at the end of the motherboard tray that this kind of runs into but not a big problem.
Only 1 DVI connection, could have come with some kind of display port adapter, again not a big deal though.
I can tell this thing is sucking alot of power.
Overall Review:
Very glad this wasn't DoA as it seems 1/10 are based on reviews but im guessing some of them might have been due to insufficient power supplies, i can tell this thing is draining alot of power from my OCZ 600w PSU, harddrive seems to be acting a bit slower because of it, going to consider going 700w+
