Radeon HD 5870

Check out the new Radeon HD 5870 because you'll notice that it has the HDMI port built into the system. This means that no special adapters are necessary when you want to join it with other media capabilities. This is a graphics processor was designed to bring your gaming experience to some place that goes way beyond expectations.

When you compare it to its predecessor, the 4870, you will see a difference in its board design. What AMD did is fully sheathed this new series. It also made several additions to its height because it now measures 10.5 inches long. The additional length isn't at all going to be a hassle. In fact, the Radeon HD 5870 has made things better for you because you can connect the card as it faces upwards inside your PC. This simply means that it is much easier to plug in because you'll see what's going on.

Moreover, the card comes with a TDP of 188W and 6-pin connectors. If you still use the older power supplies, this card was made compatible for your system as well. The other products feature 8-pin connectors while the Radeon has 6. Though it is fewer in number, you will definitely see a marked improvement in overall performance of the Radeon HD 5870. The DisplayPort and reference cards also contain a dedicated HDMI port, and a pair of DVI ports. While this has been difficult to attain for some, AMD has managed to pull it off. You can still drive two VGA monitors no matter what adapter you use it with.
