Pros: I own multiple AMD/ATI Radeon HD 5450 cards from Sapphire, XFX and PowerColor. All the cards meet my needs (I'm not a gamer). My heaviest demand is Windows Media Center (MCE). Other than the amount of DDR3 RAM, I thought the cards would be identical. Boy was I wrong. I am posting my results, comparing the three vendors.
Cons: The Sapphire (I own two) and PowerColor have 1GB of DDR3. The XFX has 512MB of DDR3. Using CPUID HWMonitor all four card cores run at 650 MHz. The DDR3 on the two Sapphire cards run at 667 MHz (above spec); the XFX DDR3 at 533 MHz (at spec); the PowerColor DDR3 at 400 MHz (below spec). All the cards are 64 bit, so card specs double the MHz. The Sapphire and XFX reduce the core and DDR3 MHz under light load (to reduce power and heat). The PowerColor remains constant at 650 and 400 MHz. Running the same (real life) workload (Windows MCE), the Sapphire utilization is ~28%; the XFX ~58%; the PowerColor ~60%. The Sapphire operates at ~47C; the XFX ~43C; the PowerColor ~49C. From visual inspection, the Sapphire has the largest heat sync (it wraps around the card). The XFX heat sync is smaller (only extends above the card). The PowerColor has the smallest heat sync. Windows Experience Index (Desktop Graphics, and 3D Business and Gaming): Sapphire (4.5 and 6.1); XFX* (2.7 and 5.4); PowerColor (3.4 and 5.7). * Note the XFX card only has half the DDR3.
Overall Review: By nearly every metric I measured, the Sapphire is the best; the XFX a near second (given equal DDR3); the PowerColor a distant third. I rate only two Eggs mostly because the DDR3 is not to Spec.
