HD 5750 Crossfire versus HD 5850 Single Card

[Talish]

Gives our Review has once again addressed the AMD CrossFire technology, but this time in between a CrossFire HD 5750 against a single HD 5850. The question is, what solution is the most profitable in the games, knowing that a HD 5850 costs about 250 €, so that we can have almost the same performance with CrossFire HD 5750 for 200 €. So can you members please help me by providing some useful information about the HD 5750 Crossfire versus HD 5850 Single Card. Is it better to err on the economy in the purchase or opt for a single graphics card? Is what we will try to determine this issue.

If one looks at the performance increase in Crossfire, you should not put themselves more than a twin HD 5750 with an overclocked CPU in the system. Here, the yield is still at 82 percent, with two HD 5830 Crossfire as it is already at 65 percent. This limit produces the increase in CPU limitation, the test system is overclocked to 4 GHz already clean. Sure you can argue what good frame rates above 60 fps. In the HD gamers this is not an option, the first widescreen gaming, and other DirectX 11 performance eaters such as Metro 2033 will take advantage of this potential sense. Who exactly ignore the prices, for now, with the HD 5750 Crossfire € 200 as fast as with a HD 5850, but a good 60 € cheaper. As many motherboards support Crossfire and two PCIe slots are standard actually says, hardly anything against the use of this double package. Unless one takes it very well and sees the extra 25 watts under full load as a 3D obstacle.

A very nice product, the HD 5830 with Twin Frozr II by MSI, it achieved in the power 2D, 3D, temperature, 2D, 3D and 2D volume the best results among the retail cards, the brilliant double fan has plenty of potential for overclocking . Sapphire and HIS have extremely good cooling, overclocking easy to swallow at the factory. HIS offers on the cards with Radeon HD 5830 the best overall concept for cooling and multi-clock, Sapphire has 2 GB of graphics memory well equipped for widescreen gaming. XFX boasts with the biggest heat pipes and has a bit of everything, good test results in less noise and good cooling performance.

The Radeon HD 5830 fits nicely into the power structure of ATI, and places between 5770 and 5850th HD In the overall performance, they can replace the HD 4890 missing the price for another 20 to 50 euros, what you pay at the moment for DirectX 11 and 40 nm more. A strong buy recommendation this time was extremely difficult. All cards are second, error you have to look and the assessment of decimal places is slightly unfair, because other test products unfairly devalues the. The Best Buy goes to Asus, the fastest single chip card in the test to overclock from the factory and silent cooling.

I wanted to ask you some questions about the config I'm going to go up,

WESTERN DIGITAL 1TB CAVIAR GREEN MO-64
HD 5750 Vapor-X + HD 5750 FORMULA
OCZ 2 x 2GB DDR3-1333 PC3-10666
NZXT M59 (box)
OCZ PC POWER 700W ModXStream PRO
Athlon phenom II x6 1055t
ASROCK M3A790GXH/128M

Motherboard compatible with the crossfire of HD 5750? Is that Ok? Whether you recommend this config?

[Alondra]

Why the mixture of the two HD 5750? Why not 5770? Hard disk, it calls for a WD 640GB blue or green if you want silence. (The 1TB may be soft). For the PSU, I still prefer the Corsair / Enermax / Seasonic, modularity is COMPULSORY or just a coincidence? The Athlon Phenom II x6 1055t for games? bof bof anyway ... check that your ram runs at a voltage less than or equal to 1.65 V. Also use some applications for checking the temperature of your motherboard and graphic card.

For the processor, terribly right,: X6 are often the most interesting (and also cheaper or more efficient) for use in computer graphics where heavy applications are optimized for multicore. For more general use, including games, Intel QuadCore i7 860 and i5 750 QuadCore are more interesting because they are more versatile. For the CG, you're on you want to get into the crossfire? Indeed, the duo of 5750 is not necessarily outperform the 5850 for the same price ...
