ATI Radeon HD 5670
$100.00
Released January, 2010
The Pros:Affordable price - below the $100 mark. Eyefinity - capable of powering 3 monitors at once. Built on the latest 40nm fabrication process - lower power consumption and heat created at higher performance levels.
The Cons:Reference cooler is really loud and annoying. Can still be outperformed by the 4770 and 4850 - both of which are the same cost, or only a little more expensive (and DirectX 11 or Eyefinity really aren't a big deal if you're gaming with this card). Higher idle and load power draw over the previous generation 4670.
