really? I'd say its good enough, not too flashy and does the job



I'd like that too, probably having one-brand less can contribute to lower cost in terms of royalties.. hence cheaper cards

yeah more source about it
SOS

sad story for me,ati are always been in my mind (been an ati user since year 1996) hope someone can do petition and send to amd..

I can feel you too. I'm been using ATi since 2002

who cares??
as long as their product is superb..
always 6 months ahead of nvidia with a good price/performance ratio

AMD wants to look better than Intel

Because Intel Graphics is mmmm...

lol chill..i know maybe we lose some of the ATi "Spirit" but there are no official statements from AMD yet..

Performance > Branding

Toxic owns better pwm, 4 phase vs reference design 2 phase ( i guess )... but no voltage tweak for the toxic since its analog pwm... which will suffer during OC...

Any HD5770 Owners here care to share how far and stable their OverClock is?

Please provide the Core/Mem clocks and Voltage pls

Even though they kill the name i hope the red colour will still intact

on the side case what is the latest stable driver ? 10.7 ?

newest driver 10.8 seem to be stable....

Yeah, it's a bummer that the Toxic doesn't have digital pwm, the card is almost the perfect 5850, but a bit short on the voltage tweak department...

I see you are an avid 5770 overclocker now
Do post your results later bro

Red is synonymous to ATI, but I hope they don't turn to green because I think AMD is green oriented in their colour palette of branding.
Nvidia's green is ok because their green is vibrant and bright, but the AMD's green looks pale and un-lively...

I thought I asked the same Q some time ago lol

Mine is at 950/1330 at stock voltage, Sapphire Vapor-X

U should post urs too

Don't know whether I should sell my 5870 and get 6000 series or I just crossfire it. I might worry the price of 6000 series is not just RM1400 =____= as last 5000 series.

waiting for HD6000 come out..huh,relax2..i also think wanna grab hd5870 my self but it will get cheaper after hd6xxx out?..hope so..

if not funding to HD5970 FTW..

I think you should opt for practically over trend, meaning you can have very good performance with the 'price-dropped' CF'ed 58xx series rather than jumping on the bandwagon by getting the 6 Series.
The 58xx as a single card is already powerful for any games at 1920X1080 res, CF'ing it will be ultimatum.

People will argue that a CF'ed 58xx will consume more power than a single 6 Series, because majority of them using 500W PSU's...for you bro ,that's the point of having of having a 850W PSU in the first place.

If you want to get the 6 Series regardless, I think it's safe for you to still use the 58xx for no more than 2 months before the big price cut to be in affect.


Either way, it's too soon to say anything...just chill, wait and see what's gonna happen in these few weeks time.

Hey how come my voltage is shown as 1.2v in MSI Kombustor when running stability test? I set it as 1.125v in MSI Afterburner already.. or must I use Asus SmartDoctor only?

Prolly command confilct because you have two .exe's that configures the gpu voltage tweak.
Try leaving the MSI voltage parameter at stock and tune the voltage at Asus SD...

i only have MSI Afterburner at the moment.. hmm.. i'll try later again..

a single 5870 is enough for me. feels like a king having CF x2 or x3 is awesome when you are really use it well like having a very big LCD monitor. if not, it's really such a waste
