XFX Radeon HD 5850 Black Edition

KEY FEATURES 1GB GDDR5 memory ATI Eyefinity technology with support for up to three displays (1,3) Window 7 support ATI Sream technology (2) Designed for DirectCompute 5.0 and OpenCL Accelerated Video Transcoding (AVT) (2,4) Compliant with DirectX® 11 and earlier revisions Supports OpenGL 3.2 40 nm Process technology ATI CrossFireX™ multi-GPU support for highly scalable performance (5) ATI Avivo™ HD video and display technology (6,7) Dynamic power management with ATI PowerPlay™ technology (6) Display Port, HDMI, 2xDL-DVI PCI Express® 2.0 support (1) Driver version 8.66 (Catalyst 9.10) or above is required to support ATI Eyefinity technology and to enable a third display you require one panel with a DisplayPort connector. (2) Requires application support for ATI stream technology. (3) ATI Eyefinity technology works with games that support non-standard aspect ratios which is required for spanning across three displays (4) Digital rights management restrictions may apply. (5) ATI CrossFireX™ technology requires an ATI CrossFireX Ready motherboard, an ATI CrossFireX™ Bridge Interconnect(s) and may require a specialized power supply. (6) ATI PowerPlay™, ATI Avivo™ and ATI Stream are technology platforms that include a broad set of capabilities offered by certain XFX Radeon™ HD GPUs. Not all products have all features and full enablement of some capabilities and may require complementary products. (7) HD capable display required.

GPU Clock MHz The main attributes of the GPU are the core clock rate, which typically ranges from 250 MHz to 1200 MHz in modern cards. 765 MHz Stream Processors Through the use of stream processing, computer benefit from the ability to transparently access a large number of 'cores' (or, computational units) on a chip without having to separately manage each and every one of them along with their associated busses, memories, I/O, etc. 1440 Bus Type N/A PCI-E 2.0 Performance N/A Standard Memory Interface Bus (bit) The bit data rate between memory and the GPU. 256 Memory Type VRAM was typically based on DDR technology. During and after that year, manufacturers moved towards the vastly superior DDR2, GDDR3 and GDDR4. DDR5 Memory Size (MB) the video card will have its own video memory which is called Video RAM or VRAM. The VRAM capacity of most modern video cards range from 128 MB to 2.0 GB. 1024 MB Memory Clock (MHz) The memory clock rate in modern cards are generally between 400 MHz and 2.4 GHz. 4500 MHz Microsoft® DirectX® Support The standard for today's PCs and next-generation consoles enables stunning and complex effects for cinematic realism. XFX graphics cards offer the most complete implementation of the Shader Model feature set-including vertex texture fetch (VTF)-to ensure top-notch compatibility and performance for all DirectX applications. 11 Shader Model Support Enables stunning and complex special effects. Next-generation shader architecture delivers faster and smoother gameplay. 5.0 Open GL Optimization and Support Ensures top-notch compatibility and performance for OpenGL applications. 3.2 Minimum Power Requirement (Watt) This is the minimum power supply wattage requirement for the graphics card to perform properly. 500W with two 6-pin power cable Cooling Fansink Sometimes known as an active cooling device, a small electrical fan which drives air across a heat sink and as such will generate a small amount of noise. It is more effective than a heat sink alone at cooling. √ ROHS The RoHS Directive stands for "the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment". This Directive bans the placing on the EU market of new electrical and electronic equipment containing more than agreed levels of lead, cadmium, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB) and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE) flame retardants. √ Profile Some graphics cards have the capability to swap out the current bracket to make it compatible with low-profile computer systems that require a lower bracket card. Double Max Resolution Analog Maximum Screen Resolution indicates the maxiumum possible sharpness and clarity of an image that a monitor can display, measured in number of dots (pixels). 2048 x 1536 Max Resolution Digital Maximum Screen Resolution indicates the maxiumum possible sharpness and clarity of an image that a monitor can display, measured in number of dots (pixels). 2560 x 1600 ATI Radeon CrossFireX™ Technology ATI CrossFireX™Technology with up to quad GPU support offers superior scalability so your system is ready to level up when you are. √ ATI Radeon PowerPlay™ Advanced power management technology for optimal performance and power savings. Performance-on-Demand allows you to constantly monitor GPU activity and dynamically adjust clocks and voltage based on user scenarios. √ ATI Radeon Stream Technology ATI Radeon Stream technology is a set of advanced hardware and software technologies that enable AMD graphics processors (GPU), working in concert with the system’s central processor (CPU), to accelerate many applications beyond just graphics. This enables better balanced platforms capable of running demanding computing tasks faster than ever. √ ATI Eyefinity Technology Enjoy the ultimate immersive gaming experience with innovative “wrap around” multi-display capabilities. Run up to 3 display from a single graphics card and expand your gaming field of view across all displays. √ DisplayPort DisplayPort is designed to be the future-ready, scalable solution for high performance digital display connectivity. It enables the highest resolutions, the fastest refresh rates and deepest color depths over standard cables. 1
