HIS Radeon HD 6850 H685F1GD Video Card with Eyefinity

Comment:
- Efficiency for the price (when it worked)- Low power consumption- Size - Crashed at random times (no-signal crash, BSOD) I don't know what it was but I'm just hoping that what I got was a card from a poor batch. It crashed at random occasions ending in either a BSOD or returning to Windows with it saying that the driver crashed and recovered. It didn't matter what I was carrying out (YouTube, Black Ops, Condition Zero, and so on.) I tried every single driver that was readily available on AMD's site ྫ.three down to ten.ten) and I still got crashes and errors. I've decided to give HIS one more attempt and have issued an RMA with Newegg and hopefully I get a card from the great batch. Manufacturer Response:Dear HIS Customer, Thank you for support in HIS.

So it worked wonderful out of the box, for about 1-1.five weeks. Played all my games on all the highest settings. Just like the other evaluation on here by "Jack", i encountered the similar troubles. The games i would play would start off pixelating, then flickering real bad, and then freeze the screen and the only way was to reset the laptop or computer... I've researched a lot on AMD Forums and located out that a lot of HD6850 and HD6870 owners encounter the exact same troubles. I've because contacted Newegg and asked for a refund and will be going Nvidia. There's absolutely nothing against newegg. Their client support is just the very best. One phone call, and 2 minutes later, i already received my RMA UPS sticker. Just phenomenal Manufacturer Response:Dear HIS Customer, Thank you for support in HIS. We are sorry for your situation.

Runs as nice as all the review websites say a 6850 really should run. Fan is loud. Like practically twice as loud as my 4850 was.Not worth docking an egg though I had considered it. I purchased on an auction web site and it came in a sealed box shipped from new egg to my address for about two twinkies much less if you don't count a rebate. Some drop shippers secret I guess. Maybe they ripped someone/thing off?

Worked although it did. The drivers for this card are horrible. I could not accomplish half of the issues listed as it was capable of performing. I couldn't even run WOW on Fair settings without having running 20 fps idle and dipping into 7 fps at times. My old 9800gtx could run 60 fps on Good setting. Now it doesn't even recognize my HD monitor (just out of the blue). None of my monitors could reach over 60Hz refresh rate either, one thing else my old 9800gtx did much better ࿫hz). Gonna try to RMA it. Next time I'm sticking with NVIDIA, ATI drivers are just too buggy and unpredictable.

I have owned many a video cards over the years(Nvidia and ATI) and this 1 is 1 of the best bang for the bucks i have gotten my hands on. Runs cool and very compaired to numerous of the other people i have owned. Vents most of what heat it does generate out the back of the case. Effortless install. Utilizes only 1 6 pin pcie plug. Cards length not bad at all. Installed this in my antec 900 case. None that i can believe of This card definitely is fantastic! If you want something with DX11 that can play most if not all modern games with decent frame rates appear no further.

Superb video card, runs most games (including Crysis) with every little thing set to ultra-high at 1920x1080 (or even 1920x1200 with the workstation) with decent frame rates ྾+). Making use of the normal Catalyst Manage Center the clocks run at 850񳁟 MHz flawlessly. I purchased 3 of these and one of them frequently locked up with a blank screen when trying to resume from sleep with Catalyst 10.12 installed (with stock clocks). Catalyst 11.1 fixed the problem and also further improved gaming efficiency on all systems.

Low-cost, less power, smaller, quiet operation, DX11, Fast, packed with features like Eyefinity!Originally, I bought 1 of these from HIS just before there was any reviews on NewEgg due to the stock limitations from the other brands. I was a little skeptical due to the fact I've never owned a HIS card. Nicely, I can say that soon after a month I Adore this card. In reality, so much so that following reading many reviews that show this card running in crossfire mode makes it faster than any other single GPU card on the marketplace, and at about 60% the price! So, I now own two and am sooooo pleased. Also, I was interested in making use of Eyefinity to control several monitors. 1 of these cards replaced two of my HD 4870s I had previously and is also faster than the prior with significantly less energy. Immediately after playing Dirt two in Eyefinity, I am hooked! It's a sight to behold across 3x24" 񣄀x1200) displays! Not a single one. Love these cards.AMD Phenom II 9554 GBs DDR3-16005x640 GB WD 7200RPM RAID five2xHIS AMD Radeon HD 6850 For those interested in making use of Eyefinity, make sure to use an Active DisplayPort adapter if you do not have a DisplayPort monitor due to the fact the DisplayPort is necessary in the setup. I bought mine from NewEgg (Sapphire Active DisplayPort). It worked with no a hitch and was a fairly low-cost acquire - absolutely worth the price to run Eyefinity.

Potent, it's a terrific price and value ratio. HIS' cooling is surely one thing I stand by for it's noise level. The 6850 has a customized board not noticed in other 6850s and I really feel it has helped make the card far better in heat control, due to the position of the memory chips. AMD/ATI is the key con. Don't anticipate them to support older games with their cards, the 5xxx and 68xx series has issues handling easy items like vertex buffer objects in Second Life. AMD/ATI's support is hard to contact, their e-mail addresses frequently reject emails and their last two driver releases have removed crucial attributes, like being able to entirely disable catalyst A.I. I'll have to see if I keep this card or RMA it, It's withstood futureMark and tessMark, as properly as 3dmark, but it did blue screen on me when I ran furMark. I think it's additional likely a driver challenge. I stand by HIS, but I regret coming back to ATI/AMD to come across they still have yet to fix their VBO problems that they've had trouble with for additional than three years.

Effective, Not power hungry, cool, quiet.This card is the best bang for the buck if your budget is among 150 and 200 bucks, the only nvidia card that's in this range is the GTX 460 whic this card whips nicely.I running BFBC2 with everithing on high 8x AA and 16x AF @ 1920x1080 and it's giving me around 60-70 FPS.Extremely advised It's not no cost! When you install the drivers you will need to go to the catalyst control center and adjust the scaling selections so that it will shoe the full screen, this is when you connect it thru HDMI.Thiswas sort of a little discomfort to figure it out.

The card was a fit in replacement for a couple of 4770 in crossfire. The single card solution easily beat up this crossfire configuration while staying silent. Eyefinity support is a plus and I am looking forward to test the included 3d solution.In summary, an excellent does-it-all performer for a serious gamer that still want to respect it`s budget. It will keep you happy by staying silent and will perform admirably in most cases. With a phenom X4 or an I5, perfect for a gaming build that can stay under 1000$
