-Runs Really cool, no doubt b/c of the vapor-x coolerIdle: 33-35C, Gaming: 57-59C (taken with RealTemp, updated for AMD cards); Furmark: 65C (!!!!!!!!!!!!!)It's in an Antec 600 mid tower with a fan blowing on it, and I also replaced the stock thermal paste with Arctic Silver so that probably created a distinction :)-Runs games at 1920x1080p pretty well at 2xAA, 16xAF, CCC mipmap set to high high quality, and super-sample AA (highest good quality AA) on...with the exception of Crysis 2 lol (see other thoughts)'-looks pretty good....-pretty excellent overclocking, highest absolutely stable and my 24ǝ setting: 940񳄶MHzPrice tag!!!!!! DO NOT HESITATE ON THIS Wonderful Performance FOR YOUR DOLLAR(S)! No voltage manage in overclock (no stars off result in I have no difficulty but just an FYI to anybody who needs that stuff)RAM appears to run quite a bit warmer than actual GPU lead to it's on the back of the card instead...6990's out :D Average FPS (wǘxAA, 16xAF, 1920x1080):Battlefield Negative Organization two: 49fpsCall of Duty 4: 52fpsNFS Shift: 56fpsNFs Hot Pursuit (forced from CCC): 48fps continuous lolEXCEPTION=CRYSIS 2Advanced settings, 0xAA, 47fps common, with some lag in intense scenarios

Used in my first develop with a AMD 445 Rana and four Gb RAM. Quiet as a mouse. Cool as a cucumber. Runs Dragon Age on max setting no dilemma. Bliz requirements to release Diablo 3 so I can play that now! Seriously, a good card for about 贶.

cool and quiet, overclocks pretty high and runs pretty much anything i throw at it at 1920 by 1080. i leave the card overclocked at 930 and 1375 which offers me about a 3-8 fps jump based on the game. Even with that overlock my max temp during gaming is around 65 (it goes up to about 80 in msi kombuster) i did have to rma it when but one bad card isnt the end of the world. the factor is that on the card that i got from the rma the heat sink wasnt attached all the way so it had higher temps than the initially. to fix the second card all i did was reply some arctic silver 5 and tightened the screws and temps dropped about 8 degreesas far as efficiency goes the card runs virtually all games at 1920 by 1080 at at least 40 fps, exceptions are crysis, just result in 2, supreme commander and metro 2033 (but these are all actually difficult games to run)in the future i will just add a second a single for crossfire since they scale really effectively

Very Great GraphicsEffortless to install the card itself and the drivers value but you get what you pay for in this case Am currently operating wow max setting with 56 fps.. amazing card!!

Comment:
none this was a factory replacement for a hunk of junk 5750 card. constant driver errors, archeteching, system reboots, just not a very good card. not any rating lower than 1 egg! do oneself a favor and get the name brand card

Run present games smoothly at high resolution (Crysis 2, Call of Duty-Black op etc). Wonderful value. The first 1 was poor. Seems to be working at 1st then BSOD and won't post. RMAed. The second 1 work wonderful so far. The rebate scheme at Sapphire is just incorrect. I also got a Sapphire HD 5570 back in Nov. last year and got approved in 1ǝቧ. It's been 12 weeks and I nonetheless have not receive the rebate (suppose to receive in 8-ten weeks). Call client service. The response is "it's been approve but the check has not been sent. I don't know why." WT"X"!!!!P.S.Got censored---- Anyway, you know what X mean...

Comment:
I ran 3 clients simultaneously of EVE On-line on the highest settings with no challenge. FPS dropped to high 40s from a regular 60+ with 2 customers. I can't ask for a lot more than that. Cover the slot subsequent to it fully.

Really quiet. Excellant gaming at 1920 X 1200 resolution. None

Excellent qualityplays games on max settingsdoesn't get incredibly hotpretty low-cost i dont like how it blows air out into my case would like it to blow air outside my case and it was pretty low-cost for the top quality your obtaining

Runs Cold, Runs Quiet, Overclocked with space for a lot moreIt's the loudest component in my machine - but I built a purposefully quiet machine. The complete unit is a little but far more than a whisper, and runs most of the time at a chill 30C on Air (case: Antec 900). When playing even Crysis on maximum settings and performing anxiety tests, the Temperature plateaus at 61C, with the fan speed never ever going greater than 40%, which is once more, barely far more than a whisper. This is the card you Want if your aim is a cold and quiet construct, possibly at the tradeoff of maximum prospective. 6-series cards are no doubt additional potent and so are some greater finish 5-series, but none with Vapor-X cooling technologies - which by the way, functions incredibly properly. You'll also spend a lot additional on those possibilities, nevertheless. The Present Version of the Crossfire driver is a little finnicky, when the driver needs to change a setting (resolution, brightness, etc) the screen will jitter left to appropriate for a moment. This is a present software program problem only.CCC Overclocking isn't that valuable either. The Auto-Tune it lands on is unstable. And when doing a manual overclock of this sort, CCC appears unable to Idle - on desktop it will run at full multiplier and the temperature will climb above 60C Just roll the drive back to the last version before the November 2010 release and you should be good. I also bought a refurb'd unit so my encounter could differ.You can also use MSI Afterburner software program to override CCC's Clock speeds for Core and Memory. So far I havent landed on a stable OC however but I havent been at it incredibly lengthy. MSI AB also will enable the Overclock multipliers to Idle correctly: A far superior choice to overclocking under CCC.

This is a wonderful acquire for the money. Had it installed and drivers updated in about 5 mins. Only game I have tried on it so far is Lord of the Rings On the net, but I can tell you with ALL settings maxxed with DirectX 11-I get 80-120 frame rates. Really nice and pleased with this card! It was a surprise Bday gift and couldnt be happier. none that I can believe of.

Comment:
Excellent card for the $$$. I use it for WoW and can play with quite high settings. Elevated my systems total noise to a level that I was attempting to stay away from just before.

Comment:
runs nice and cool, runs crysis on high, but crashes on ultra. doesn't run older games nicely. replaced a 4870 wit 2x 5770 . the 5770's will only run black & white two on medium with all effets off. no fur on animals, and no water. got two of these for 100$ every single and crossfired them, like i said above, great for new games,, not so good for dx9 and earlier.

Comment:
Plays practically everything in high res. Lot of benefits for the cost.There is a distinction in Directx 11 and Directx 9c. Will not play HDMI out on my Samsung 46in LED Tv in suggested resoultion 1900x 1080? Will play in lower resoultion and is great enough for me mainly because the picture High quality in Good. This is a Fantastic card for the funds and will upgrade to a superior card when costs are lower.

Comment:
Runs every game I've installed at highest settings. None so far

Comment:
Handles CIV five quite superior and runs SC two on ultra or extreme. Cant wait to run far more games. Solved my crashing troubles thank you Sapphire. Vapor-x rules Its not the very best, but cant beat the cost. I am Going to crossfire yet another one and Its going to be sweet

Comment:
Don't know. I could in no way get it to fit or function. Fan case was large sufficient that it was hitting the other slot subsequent to where this 1 went into. I couldn't get it in all the way. A lot more than most likely a MB issue than a card problem.

Comment:
Really pleased with this obtain. It runs crysis two and dead space two max settings with out any difficulties. Runs cool 39c at idle and 48c under full load. If your seeking to play new games at max setting without having spending 跌 this is the card for you none

Comment:
1) runs quite cool 39°C idle 69°C max2) extremely quiet, even under load isn't anywhere near as load as my 8800 GTS 512three) impressive performance for the dollars4) very small so improves air flow in case. CPU temps dropped 3-four°C from when i had my 8800GTS 512. 1) ati drivers SUCK. took me FOREVER to lastly wipe my personal computer clean sufficient to install drivers that the card would finally run smooth.2) grey screen and blue screen of death. On the other hand - this was solved by flashing the bios to run at 200core룄mem instead of 157core룄mem. (Use Radeon Bios Editor and ATIwinflash. Medium difficulty.) At 157mhz the card doesn't respond quick sufficient for Windows7, so Windows assumes there's a problem and therefore the GSOD and BSOD. Soon after flashing, all difficulties gone. three) except for crossfire. Cards will not function period in crossfire. Have not tried *everything* but, need time to troubleshoot. but after spending my 1st 3 weeks of ownership troubleshooting, i'm about sick of spending hours researching forums (Sapphire tech support totally worthless) and taking my pc apart and back together. I adore how tiny and quiet and cool these cards run. And when I had the card working appropriate, its performed flawlessly and even a single 5770 can play Crysis: Warhead ultra settings 1920x1080 at typically playable framerates. Nevertheless, the amount of time and frustration it took to get it working is not some thing I'd want to do once more. Unless I hear some critical excellent points about ATI fixing their driver headaches, I'm going back to the Green Team for my next GPU.

It is a very great "mid-range" card that can pretty a great deal max anything out. The only game I could not max out on was Metro 2033. The card's heatsink style is extremely effectiveand even a lot more so with a side fan blowing out air. The software program or firmware has a bug that actually Needs to be fixed. This difficulty kills wanting to own the card. It is a commonly known dilemma with HD5K series and is at present getting "resolved." If you have the money get a 6k series unless you figure out a fix. The must start which includes HDMI cables with video cards.

Runs cool. A cheaper HD5770 from the exact same corporation was giving me 104C on high whereas this 1 only goes up to 82 (highest) though running FFXIV. (GPU-Z utilized to measure temp) None. It's quiet, runs cool, CCC does not permit manual control of fan speeds or overclocking. It is running under particularly poor air circulation in an XPS MT435 that has not been modded besides the replacement of the case fan and a new PSU. It runs cool just why I got this.

five months in and I'm nonetheless loving this card. The Vapor chamber cooler is by far the ideal stock cooler you can get and it overclocks like a beast. For what I paid for it (贰 at the time) I am entirely pleased. It can't get a beer for me from my fridge like my Dog but then again even my wife hasn't figured out that 1 yet. Personally, I haven't skilled any of the GSD's other people have so I may possibly just be lucky. At 货 I would look at it a steal but I also know that the 6770's will be out soon which will most likely drop the cost down a different บ - 20 so you might want to wait to pick one up until then. At 贄 - 贘 they would be a complete steal.

-Size, Doesn't cover my micro atx MoBo sata ports-Effortless to crossfire-ATI/AMD Catylist controller is great-Sapphire emblem lights up blue, adds a small flare to my case -Requirements an ACTIVE display port converter to have three monitors even if you are crossfire. My mistake, didn't do sufficient analysis just before hand I guess. -Obvious, but may be worth mentioning for a reminder to some, it covers the pci port below it I adore them! Boosts Windows experience up to 7.3 where my old card geforce 210 and my friends geforce 9800 were 4.7-four.9
