HIS Radeon HD 5750 iCooler IV 1 GB | Posted on: 28/11/2009 @ 9:10

HIS designed a Radeon HD 5750 that uses a nearly silent cooler by Arctic Cooling which makes this card a premium choice for HTPC or quiet gaming PC. Even though the cooler is quiet, the temperatures are low, which means you can get some nice overclocking out of your card. In our case around 20% free extra performance.

Sapphire Vapor-X Radeon HD5870 1GB Graphics Card | Posted on: 25/11/2009 @ 18:00

Sapphire's Vapor-X Radeon HD5870 takes a top of the line single GPU graphics card and enhances it in a few areas to make it even more appealing. The 3D performance is definitely impressive, but the fact that it stays cool, quiet, and doesn't send the electric meter spinning seems like an even greater accomplishment.

Radeon 5970 Overclocking: The VRM Temperature Bottleneck | Posted on: 25/11/2009 @ 14:20

In our Radeon HD 5970 review, we ran in to some issues when trying to overclock the card to 5870 speeds of 850MHz/1200MHz. At the time this is something we attributed to the VRMs, meanwhile AMD suggested that it was cooling related, and that we should manually increase the fan speed. As it turns out, we were both right, we just didn’t have the tools at...

NVIDIA Pushes Out 195.22 Beta Linux Driver | Posted on: 25/11/2009 @ 0:50

After talking about NVIDIA's forthcoming 64-bit FreeBSD driver we were alerted to the fact that the first 195.xx public beta driver is now available. Earlier this month we first talked about the NVIDIA Linux 195.xx driver series as Fermi GT 300 support was being worked on, but now a Fermi-less (or at least from their official change-log) driver has arrived...

With the FreeBSD 8.0 release now available, we reached out to NVIDIA to find out the status of their 64-bit BSD display driver, now that this operating system carries the necessary mmap extension support in their 64-bit kernel for their proprietary graphics driver to function. Andy Ritger, who heads the user-space side of NVIDIA's UNIX Graphics Driver team and was previously interviewed by ...

Sapphire HD5770 Videocard Review @ Tweaknews | Posted on: 24/11/2009 @ 7:40

As a DirectX 11 launching point, the HD5770 from Sapphire is surprisingly a very quick and powerful videocard for little money. Right out of the box it plays with the HD4850, bullies it around the school yard then takes its lunch. Then it runs over to the HD4870, runs circles around it, and then gives it a black eye.

A New Patch For Radeon DRM Power Savings | Posted on: 21/11/2009 @ 15:00

While OpenGL acceleration and GPU-assisted video playback are often most viewed as the areas that are severely lacking for the open-source Linux graphics drivers in comparison to what the binary-only ATI/NVIDIA drivers offer, another area that has not yet caught up to speed with the binary competition is power management. For years (going back to 2005) AMD has implemented PowerPlay support in ...

The graphics solution world is constantly evolving with visual quality being stepped up at an ever-growing exponential rate.

The GeForce GT 240 is NVIDIA’s latest performance-class GPU that can be picked up for under $99. With 96 processor cores and with a frame buffer of either 512MB or 1024MB these little budget cards should perform pretty well, but obviously still lack support for DirectX 11.

NVIDIA Legacy Driver Updates For X Server 1.7 | Posted on: 13/11/2009 @ 19:50

While many of the distributions arriving this autumn and winter are shipping with an X Server 1.6 build rather than the new X Server 1.7, if you are using Fedora 12 or another distribution shipping with the latest X.Org 7.5 packages, there is good news if you are a customer of NVIDIA's older graphics hardware.

HIS Radeon HD4890 iCooler x4 Videocard Review | Posted on: 09/11/2009 @ 5:13

The HD4890 iCooler x4 edition from HIS can be easily summed up as a performance bargain for US$179 at the time of this review.

The bottom line is that the HD5850 is an excellent choice for those in need of some serious gaming muscle, but not the kind of muscle that costs $300, $400, or even more. For $270, the Sapphire card offers great performance, fairly low noise output, decent energy efficiency, and all of the cool new features available in the HD5XXX series.
