ATI Radeon HD 5570 Review
in-house feature
It's self-evident how AMD has kept us busy over the last few months, showing us new generation GPUs aiming at all possible price points. From the performance-oriented HD 5850/5870, to the mainstream HD 5770 and the extreme dual-GPU powered HD 5970. The budget models had to wait a bit longer.
Today AMD is introducing another new member to the Radeon HD 5000 family -- the eighth installment in the series. The ATI Radeon HD 5570 will sit between the aforementioned Radeon HD 5450 and 5670 in terms of pricing and performance, which means it should deliver a similar level of performance to that of the Radeon HD 4670 at the same starting price of ~$79.
The Radeon HD 5570 is a more powerful GPU than the HD 5450, capable of playing games comfortably at 720p, while retaining some of the HTPC-friendly properties that made the latter an attractive buy.

You are incorrect with the 5570 driving three displays by itself. On top of that, without the displayport connector you cannot in any way drive three displays. The only way you can do it is if you have the displayport connector AND an active displayport to DVI/HDMI adapter or a display with a built in displayport connector. Display port monitors are more prevelant in the market now and prices are slowly coming down. The adapter prices seem to be going up. Pass this info onto any other Radeon 5000 series reviewers. |

I have been using this review frequently, and wanted to say that I appreciate when a review website like TS releases a review for a lower end GPU, it may not be as exciting as a high end GPU review, but it is very helpful for budget builders. Thanks TS and Julio Franco for writing this review

I recently got a machine with this card & I have to say, it's hard to think of as a "lower end" card. Especially with any of the games I like... Star Trek: Online, Portal 2, Unreal 3, among others - with the quality settings way high. It runs fairly cool, uses minimal power... Not a suer-ultra high end gaming card, sure... But for the price especially it's shockingly awesome. |
