Hi everyone,

Another week marks the launch of yet another DirectX 11 GPU from AMD - After last week's low-end Radeon HD 5450, today we see the introduction of another "Redwood" GPU core derived board which looks to sit in-between that part and the Radeon HD 5670. Named the Radeon HD 5570, today's new offering promises a compelling level of performance at an extremely low price, but can it deliver on that potential? We take a look at Sapphire's Radeon HD 5570 1GB to find out.


Sapphire Radeon HD 5570 1GB video card review

"While this card's GPU might have more in common with the Radeon HD 5670, the PCB and board design itself bears a closer resemblance to the Radeon HD 5450, providing us with a low-profile card that will fit in the smallest of chassis. While the Radeon HD 5450 is treated to an entirely passive cooling solution, Sapphire's Radeon HD 5570 comes equipped with a small, single slot active cooler with fan.

As you'd expect, this card requires no additional power, with the PCI Express 16x slot providing all of the juice required. The usual CrossFire inter-GPU connectors are also absent here, although two (or more) Radeon HD 5570 boards can still be run in a CrossFire configuration, with data sent over the PCI Express bus instead."
