  • Modern feature set True multi-mode solution in low-profile FF Very low power consumption Aggressive power modulation of GPU and RAM

  • Highend gaming titles need to be run at lower settings to avoid stutter AIB partners will probably use lowerperforming coolers

There are at least a couple of ways in which you can look at the Radeon HD 5570. For starters, it is the most affordable DirectX 11 graphics card capable of gaming with a retail price of $79-85. How you value the ability to support DX11 games is...

Here we go again on the ever-expanding product merry-go-round with AMD. This time it's the ATI Radeon HD 5570 sloting in at twenty five notes short of a ton. Another price point covered then!If you've checked out the HD 5830 review then...

This card features a half-height form factor and has a DVI, HDMI, and VGA port on the full-height bracket. The active cooler on this card is considerably smaller than that of the 5670, covering GPU and memory chips. We wouldn't be surprised to see...

The card at a glance For our tests, we used a stock model supplied to us by ATI. The connectivity at the back of the card comprises an HDMI out, a DVI and a VGA. The fan cooling is noisy. Best not to go for models with the stock cooler then. Opt...

Looking at the performance of the ATI Radeon HD5570, you have to give up the idea that this is going to be a star gaming rig. In modern FPS games, it was just below 30 fps for all of the games we routinely test with, at the visual quality levels that...

Looks good on paper, but it's not great value for money....

The $80 HD 5570 more than doubled the performance of the $50 HD 4550 in nearly all our tests, but its DirectX 11 performance was far from stellar....

After NVIDIA released their competitors to the successful ATI's 4000 series lower end cards, finally bringing us DX10.1 and GDDR5 and native audio support over HDMI, ATI has upped the ante with its new 5000 series cards from the lower segment....

It's an odd feeling I have for the low end market of graphics cards over the past year or so. Neither AMD nor NVIDIA have really come out with a new product that I felt really ran away from the pack or set some new performance standard for the $99...

What do you get when you mix DirectX 11, a trio of display outputs (though, bear in mind, the card on our test bench doesn't support three displays), bitstreaming, and a $10 price increase to the Radeon HD 4670? You get a Radeon HD 5570, more or...

For the money versus quality, it will actually make a bitching nice HTPC card, but here's the real advantage, with 400 unified shaders processors you certainly can handle some low-level gaming with it as well. Half a TeraFLOP is what is thrown at...

When AMD launched the 5670, they told us they had 2 more cards on the way: the 5450, and a 5500 series card. Last week we saw the launch of the 5450, utilizing the Cedar GPU and finishing off AMD’s chip stack. Today we’re looking at that...
