AMD launches HD 5850 card

On October 1st, 2009 in Uncategorized -


While AMD launched high-end 5870 graphics card, it became not only the first and only DX11 card on the market, it was by far the fastest single-GPU card on the market. Now, AMD has released the budget version, which costs $100 less (retails at $250), but is clocked less and has a few less shader cores than the big brother. However, don’t expect the card to be a lot slower — it’s still one of the fastest on the market, and given that Nvidia’s next-gen GPUs won’t be out until next year, AMD looks to dominate the market this holiday season, especially considering DirectX 11 cards.
