Gigabyte and Sapphire have introduced two overclocked HD 5870 that make reference clocked cards feel totally inadequate and seek counseling. We already mentioned them in our CeBit coverage, but now they’re here and should ship within days. Sapphire’s new HD 5870 Toxic packs 2GB of memory and its core is overclocked to 925MHz. Impressive numbers, [...]

Gainward is among the first companies to bring Fermi-based graphics cards to Europe, and we simply couldn’t resist the urge to show you some preliminary results. We’re talking about two cards – 480 GTX and 470 GTX. Both cards run at reference clocks, but perhaps the most important piece of info is that the cards [...]

We learned some basics about NVIDIA’s first new card to launch after GeForce GTX 480 and GTX 470 cards. The new card is codenamed GF104 and it is currently taped out, works and performance looks good. The chip is much smaller than recently launched Fermi-based GeForce GTX 480 and 470 and our sources expect that [...]

Mozilla Foundation is working on Direct2D accelleration which will mean that it s Firefox browser will be able to call upon the power of the GPU to speed itself up. While it certainly won’t turn a sluggish Internet connection into a speedy one it will help number crunch all those browser scripts a lot quicker. [...]

Some ATI partners are expected to lower the prices of Radeon HD 5870 and 5850 series but this action is not something that will happen overnight. We have learned that key people at AMD are still waiting to see how many Fermi cards will be available and they will only react if NVIDIA manages to [...]

In order to simply make the card a bit more appealing to the buyers, POV is one of the few partners that has used a full sticker for plastic part of the cooler on GTX 480 and GTX 470 cards. Basically, all the GTX 400 series cards will be the same once they finally arrive [...]

NVIDIA’s second batch of soon-to-be-available Fermi cards is expected in the first days of May. This is what the company told to few of its launch partners. As we said before, Fermi should (we are not allowed to use “will” for NVIDIA’s announcement ed.) start selling in the week of April 12th and few people [...]

Club3D has launched a new member of its HD 5800 series graphics cards, the HD 5830 Overclocked Edition. The card features a slight factory overclock and will use a non-reference cooler. The Club3D HD 5830 Overclocked Edition features 1120 Stream processors, works at 825MHz for the core, and comes with 1024MB of GDDR5 memory clocked [...]

Overclocking legend Peter Tan aka Shamino has managed to overclock NVIDIA’s GTX 480 to 1165MHz with the help of some LN2 and nerves of steel. As you probably know by now, the GTX 480 is reference clocked at 700MHz. The GTX 480 is not what we’d call overclocking friendly. It’s rather hot and under load [...]

Since the official launch of Fermi is on Friday US / late Friday night / Saturday morning in Europe, we are getting the last hidden details on the of slower of two Fermi cards. GeForce GTX 470 has 448 cores, packs 1280MHz GDDR5 memory with a 320-bit memory interface clocked at 1674MHz has a TDP [...]

Since the market is currently concentrated on high-end cards and the never-ending struggle over the top-performance throne, we decided to shift our attention to a card that will not cost you an arm and a leg, ATI’s mid-range HD 4670. ATI’s HD 4670 is comparable to NVIDIA’s 9500GT GDDR3, and back when it was launched, [...]

Back when the HD 4670 was launched, Sapphire was the first company whose cards we’ve found in retail, and so far, Sapphire managed to launch a couple of cards, one of which is passively cooled. Everyone had high expectations for the HD 4670, especially after rave reviews the HD 4800 generation has received. It was [...]

According to the information Fudzilla managed to obtain  PowerColor has constructed two Radeons HD 4890. The Group brings to market two versions of the card – a simple and overclocked. The only feature (besides the frequency of clock) differed both accelerators is the fact that the overclocked version  get additional game BattleForge. Graphics processor of [...]

About merge two graphics processors GeForce GTX 295 on a single PCB has already been confirmed, but Fudzilla website has learned that the first card that appears on store shelves as early as May. Clocks as well as, unfortunately, the final price will remain unchanged, although the production of such an accelerator is much cheaper [...]

Service Fudzilla tested the new Radeon HD 4890 from XFX. It was a matter of checking on the performance gain for DirectX version 10.1. Tests conducted on a Tom Clancy game, HAWX at a resolution of 1920×1200 and 2560×1600 px. Look at the results. The Full HD resolution of the game was about 8 or [...]

Our today’s guest is GeForce GTX 285, yet another card with a 55nm GPU. The recently announced GTX 295 card also features a 55nm GPU, as is the case with many other NVIDIA cards such as the GTX 260 with 216 shaders. NVIDIA opted for a silent approach, where the cards would get a new [...]

S3 Graphics has released a new beta driver that enables OpenGL 3.0 support for S3′s Chrome 500 series.
