At the time of release of the HD 5700 series of video cards,could not be called the best. This series was intended for the mass customer, and AMD thus simply continued to fill the video chip with DirectX 11 support. In fact, the cards in this series should become cheaper analogues of the HD 5800 version. The ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series characteristics allow us to make this conclusion. This series included only two cards: these are HD 5770 and HD 5790. There was also an HD 5830 video card, which it would be logical to rank among the ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series. Its characteristic fully corresponded to this series, and it should have had the “name” HD 5790, but the developer attributed it to another series because of the 256-bit memory bus and another graphics processor.
ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series Specifications
Given that there are two video cards in the series, let's start withyounger model. The reference model HD 5750 runs at 700 MHz, and the graphics processor has 720 universal processors. The older HD 5770 graphics card is better for the better: here the processor frequency is 850 MHz, and the number of processors is 800.
Before the release of both video cards, it was rumored that theywill get the memory running at the same frequencies, but in fact the frequencies are slightly different. The younger model has a memory frequency of 1150 MHz, and the memory frequency of the older model is 1200 MHz. This means that the latter will be slightly faster, although the difference is very small. The amount of GDDR5 memory of both cards is 1024 MB, and the memory bus is 128 bits. This clearly can not be attributed to the list of advantages of models.
HD 5750 main competitors are GTX260 from the manufacturer Nvidia or video card HD 4890. However, the latter is slightly faster, because in the performance test in the 3DMark program, the 5770 scores 9103 points, and the older HD 4890 gets a score of 10312 points.
Cost and overclocking characteristics of the ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series
In this lineup, the HD 5770 map turned out to be muchbetter than its younger version. Its price in Moscow is on average 4,000 rubles. Although today this model is no longer produced and it is impossible to find it on sale. Note that the adapter has proven itself to be a fairly cold and quiet solution with high performance. And if you buy this video card from third-party partners with an improved cooling system, then you can even get complete silence from the system unit, even if you run enough "heavy" 3D applications.
Если немного разогнать эту плату при наличии good cooling system, it can even catch up on the performance of HD 5830. And if you use 2 HD 5770 video cards in tandem using the CrossFire X technology, you can get a big performance boost.
About HD 5750 card
As for the HD 5750 in the ATI Radeon video card seriesHD 5700 Series, its characteristics are worse than the older model. And although the speed almost did not fall compared with the HD 5770 card, the model turned out to be quite hot and loud. It was very hot, and its cooling required high rotational speeds of the cooler. Most likely, the cooling system was extremely unsuccessful, but there are also video cards of partners with their own cooling systems. Perhaps they are not noisy.
However, despite the lower performanceATI Radeon HD 5700 Series (HD 5750) graphics card, when overclocked, it can achieve performance of the HD 5770 model. This means that the buyer can get about the same performance for the same money. But, frankly, the heat and noise of the youngest in the video card line scared many buyers, who learned about these shortcomings from the forums on the Internet.
Conclusion
At the time of release, both cards were positivemet by the public. For relatively little money, it was possible to buy a card that supported modern technologies and allowed to launch game releases at maximum settings. At the same time, these cards have never been the Top, and today they are outdated. By modern standards, the technical characteristics of the ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series are rather weak for 3D applications (games). However, such maps are found in old office computers or laptops (mobile versions are used there), which are suitable for surfing the Internet and office tasks.
