ATI Radeon HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 Review
I kølvandet på at Nvidia har lanceret deres nyeste udgave af grafikkort på markedet så har ATI faktisk lanceret en kraftigere udgave af deres 5870 grafikkort, eller faktisk en mere avanceret model hvor der for alvor bliver fokuseret på de kræfter som der skulle være i den nye ATI serie.
Der tales om deres Eyefinity, som er baseret på muligheden for 3 skærme sammen men teknologien bag den nye HD5000 serie er op til 6 skærme, der går under betegnelsen Eyefinity, men det kræver lidt specielt udstyr for at bruge de 6 skærme der kræver display ports.
Der er kommet et grafikkort fra ATI som er udstyret med netop disse 6 display ports så det kan fungere sammen med 6 skærme samtidig og dermed det fulde Eyefinity.
Bit-tech har kigget på dette setup og læs videre hos dem for at opleve dette voldsomme setup og hvad de mener om det rent performancemæssigt, men også værdimæssigt i forhold til oplevelsen.
Trawl a few forums for advice on which high-end graphics card to buy at the moment and you’ll likely hit a torrent of scorn that implies you’re wasting your money, that the consoles are holding back PC game engine development and that you’re Hitler in disguise (there’s always someone who has to lower the tone).
Hitler jibes aside, the rest of the criticism is bad news if you’re a graphics card manufacturer, and worse if you make GPUs. The obvious answer to the problem (perceived or real) of stagnation in pixel processing finesse is to develop some kind of technology that raises the number of pixels to process: enter ATI’s Eyefinity.
Eyefinity ws introduced back in September 2009, with the first Cypress GPU, which powered the Radeon HD 5870. ATI built three output controllers into the back-end of the GPU, and that let you output to three screens concurrently from one card, so it’s something that all standard HD 5870s are capable of.
Crazier still, ATI showed an Eyefinity Edition of the HD 5870, which could output to six screens simultaneously. It’s this card – called the HD 5870 Eyefinity 6 – that we have today and will be looking at.
