XFX Radeon HD 5850 HD-585X-ZAFC Video Card w/ Eyefinity

Comment:
After using nvidia card for years, I tried 5850 due to so many positive reviews from tech sites. No issues at all. Works flawlessly so far.

Excellent performance card. Good price for performance. Bought this because I couldnt find myself spending 100-150$ more for a little better performance with the 5870.

Awesome video card. I was able to easily overclock this card to run at 875Mhz core and 1150Mhz memory at stock voltage. Runs at acceptable temperatures (38-40°C at idle, 60-64°C at load) and is stable. I've been able to play all my games (Starcraft 2 Beta, BFBC2, Crysis, WOW, TF2, etc) at the highest settings very smoothly at 1920x1080. The fan is not very loud when playing games - I can hardly notice it. Great card overall

Very nice graphics card. Bought this for my cousin's build and he loves it. Great FPS in games! Buying this for other builds

Absolutely amazing! Upgraded to this from an evga 8800gts 512 and this thing just shames it in every way. I am running all my games (crysis included) at 1920x1080 with all the settings and bling turned on. Its screamin through everything I throw at it. Best part about this card (specifically this version of the 5850, since its a non reference design) is how well it keeps cool. My 8800gts was scorching at 55c idle, 75c load, and this thing is now running around 29c idle, 50c full load. Best part is that the fan on the card was only at like 23% to keep it just under or at 50c!!!!! Talk about an amazing card, I say to anyone considering these cards to get one, you'll never regret it.

This is a very good card. Love the ATI Catalyst tool... it is really cool and makes it easy to monitor your GPU and to overclock a little while keeping your card safe. Plays most games i throw at it on ultra 60 fps or higher except for crisis which I benchmark only 25 average (this is to be expected from crisis though). Disappointed that it doesn't kick wow's butt but it is too CPU intensive for the GPU to matter too much (basically, must have a very good CPU to render all of those RPG characters). Overall, I am impressed with this card but I think it is a little overpriced. It also really bothers me that you cannot run this in eyefinity and still expect decent fps at higher settings. I think they need to start really working to being able to run eyefinity on high settings without having to use multiple GPUs (even a single 5970 has a hard time doing this). I think their next rounds will be better though.
