ATI Radeon HD5770

Advantages: Outstanding performance
Disadvantages: not suitable for smaller computers

...card I cannot really see that being a necessity. One (or two) words of warning. This is a bit of a beast of a card at 11 and a half inches long so make sure it will fit your computer before buying as a lot of computer cases will not take this length. Also if you have got less than a 500W power supply you will either have to buy a new one or forget it as it is very power hungry. The upside is that it will cope with all the latest games with ease and if you have got a BD drive you can watch them in beautiful hd on your computer. Needless to say all in all I highly recommend this graphics card....

Review of Sapphire RADEON HD 5770

XFX Radeon HD 5550, Great for the price.

Advantages: Good Price, Good starter card, can run most games on full, solid for beginners
Disadvantages: Not the most powerful card avaliable

...Comparing this card to higher end cards such as the Nvidia GTS 240 or the Radeon HD 5750 is something that a lot of the online reviewers do, and whilst this is a ridiculous thing to do when looking at benchmarks, it does in a way make some sense. For the cash this card is great, and will run most games before 2010 on their highest settings with not too much stress, although with more recent games some things may have to be cut down to medium or maybe even low if you are playing a particularly demanding Strategy title. For the cash this card is great, and I purchased mine along with a motherboard and CPU in a package for around £200 (around $300), which I think was a great deal for the components included. For beginners to PC gaming this card is a solid one until you can move onto something big, and the important thing to remember is...

Review of XFX Radeon HD 5550

XFX ATi Radeon HD 4870 1GB, a great graphics card.

Advantages: Can run almost every game on highest settings, easy to overclock, very good memory speed.
Disadvantages: No PhsX so some games can't run properly or even at all sometimes, some old games dont work.

...The XFX ATi Radeon HD 4870 1024MB GDDR5, is undoubtedly one of the best cards you can buy within it's price range (to name a few the Nvidia GTX 260, the Nvidia GTS 250 and the ATi 4850) it is able to play almost every modern game at highest settings at a playable speed. I say almost because because some games require Nvidia PhsX, and I say modern because some old games don't work on the graphics card, Quake III for example. Although Deus Ex Works, as do all of Valves games and Diablo II does, but it has graphical issues and can mess up the placement of your windows. Visuals Almost every game that I own I can run at highest settings with a flawless framerate, Crysis runs at about 20 FPS which is playable but not exactly flawless. It still looks absolutely amazing though and you completely forget the bad gameplay...
