Visiontek ATI Radeon HD 5670 Review: In pursuit of 1GHz
3DMark Vantage
3DMark Vantage is a PC benchmark suite designed to test the DirectX10 performance of your graphics card. It is the latest addition to the 3DMark series. As it is a DX10-only benchmark, it only runs on Windows Vista and Windows 7. 3DMark Vantage is composed of four full-bore benchmarking tests (2 CPU tests and 2 GPU tests) and 6 feature tests. This test makes good use of multi-core CPUs and can even use Nvidia’s PhysX technology on its GeForce lineup of video cards.
The HD 5670 ends up slower than the HD 4770 which is to be expected, given that it has less stream processors. The GT 240, which is in the same price segment as the HD 5670 ends up slower.
Which software did you use for overclockin? the catalyst center goes only till 850/1050. Nice review.
I used MSI Afterburner, and enabled Unofficial overclocking in the ini file for it. The picture of the overclock can be found on page 4. http://alienbabeltech.com/main/?p=18441&page=4
MrK, where is the ini file for this and when there, how do you enable unofficial overclocking?
@shrtmn13 Open the MSI Afterburner.cfg with Notepad. It is located in the folder where MSI Afterburner is installed.
This is not a mid range card, I have it as well. Its a low spec card with a shitty cooler. If there were some way to replace its cooler it could be worth calling mid range. I have the sapphire version and the fan at full load sounds like a vacuum cleaner.
Ideas would be nice 😛
Never mind my original post I just bought an AMD x6 now the whole thing sounds like a Hoover
