PowerColor Radeon HD 7850 DirectX 11 AX7850 2GBD5-2DH 2GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card

Pros: FAST! This card is small, but really powerful. About the same size as a 6850, maybe even smaller. Comes with a good amount of adapters.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: OC'ed to 1050/1450 and temps stay 61-63 under full load. Works perfectly.

Pros: aesthetically its beautiful, havent played a single game that brought the card below 60fps, this includes crysis, crysis2 hd texture dx11, borderlands, borderlands 2, bf3, dolphin emulator with hd textures on super smash brawl, other games too, all on the highest possible settings 1920x1080 resolution (except: I switched medium physx for bl2, high setting was very exaggerated and heats up my CPU since I don't run NVIDIA and physx is obviously NVIDIA based)

Cons: technically 4.5 stars due to its heat dissipation method, its a single fan that exhausts through the back of the gpu, however the card runs cool (see other thoughts) the fan at 70%> is loud however I have 10 fans ok my case so it doesn't bother me whatsoever, (had 912 case so the venting makes the internals louder than a typical case anyway)

Overall Review: low power consumption, actually ran it on a 460w dell psu with I7 2600, 16gb ram and a few fans for a while, temps--idle: 27-32, load: 48-55 single screen, idle: 39-47, load: 54-58 overclocked to 1050/1300 (crazy how temps are managed on this card) dual screen not eyefinity overclocks crazy however I don't really go past the ccc max amd never touch voltage, overall: well worth the money, reliable, runs cool, looks very clean, comes with adapters, needs single 6pin, never had problems, buy one and see for yourself

Pros: Great overclocking ability, and a great card all-in-all. Runs everything I throw at it on max settings. Plays Diablo III flawlessly at 1080p maxed out settings. Dirt 3 showdown runs great as well,

Cons: Doesn't make Bourbon :(

Overall Review: Setup: This video card 12gb DDR3 ram ASUS Essentio CM6870 ps running a Gen 3 Core i5 Ivy Bridge overclocked to 4.1 GHZ 2 Internal 3tb WD Green Drives via Sata 6 If your on the fence about this card grab it, plus its crossfire ready if you wanna do SLI :D But I have this hooked up to 2 32" 1080p LED tv's and it runs flawlessly

Pros: -Plays almost everything I throw at it on ultra, rarely under 40 fps. (bf3, RIFT, Skyrim) -It's nice and short. Fits in my Lian-li PC-tu200b and left plenty of room for me to put in a water cooler for my processor, since Mini ITX boards don't have much for heatsink options. - Stays cool, even with a single fan and under heavy load. Haven't seen it over 60C on Speedfan.

Cons: The fan can be very high pitched when over 65% fan speed, but this is only a single fan card, so it is expected. Not worth docking an egg for.

Pros: The card runs great and is probably one of the best mid-range cards on the market. Has many of the features of the 7900 series with less cost

Cons: The one problem i have with this card is that currently you cannot stream via xsplit with this card as well as the 7870, and the 7900 series. (Although hopefully this changes in the next few weeks if not days...)

Overall Review: Best mid-range card if you dont stream

Pros: Out of the box my card overclocked to 1200MHz / 5800Mhz stable. The only problem was that temperatures get too hot for the reference cooler. Moster Overclocks are Availabe with some minor mods. I replaced my stock coller with an Accelero Twin Turbo II, and then flashed the BIOS to an ASUS DCU TOP Edition which unlocks voltages up to 1.3v. The increased voltages and GREATLY increase cooling performance now enable me to clock the GPU to to 1350MHz stable (yes 1350MHz) @ 1.3v and bench upto 1385MHz. These speeds murder a stock 7950 and equal a 7970 within most benchmarks. That's a 60% overclock on air, and within a Micro-ATX case with. Just Google "7850 1376MHz" and you will find my benchmarks.

Cons: *To obtain trully monsterous overclocks you need to void your warranty. *Stock cooler is poor, so replace it.

Overall Review: I live within the UK so have never purchased anything from newegg (they do not ship here). However, I do read many of the hardware reviews here, and thought that I would share my PC 7850 findings/experiments. This is not the fastest card I own (my 680 is faster), but it is the most fun to overclock and trully great value.

Pros: It works, it is cheap compared to other 7850 offerings, and it runs games fast. It also comes with a lot of adapters, for whatever your needs. Lastly at only ~8" long it is small which means it fits in my Antec Sonata case.

Cons: It is nit-picky, but some of the other vendors have dual fans that may potentially keep the temps down a little more.

Overall Review: This card runs everything great. No problems running any games. Overclocked this to 1050/1450 and temps have been <75 on full load. Really though, this was the cheapest available card of this size on newegg, and I couldn't be more happy with it.

Pros: Runs Skyrim on all highest settings with temps topping out at 45°C and 35% fan. Scores a 7.9 in graphics and a 7.9 in gaming graphics in the Windows Experience Index.

Cons: It didn't arrive in time for the Guild Wars 2 beta weekend (9 days to deliver). Some other brands that were out of stock offered a free Dirt 3 game which this model did not.

Overall Review: I bought this to pep up an aging system with a Sapphire HD 4850. The 4850 is about 3/4 of an inch longer and 1/8 shorter than the 7850 so the 7850 easily fits in my Cool Master case. Sits at 36°C and 28% fan when idle. The single 6 pin power connector is another plus. I didn't bother with the drivers on the included CD. I grabbed the latest ones from the PowerColor web site - Catalyst Version 12.3. No driver issues so far.
