Faster than GTS 240, slower than HD 4770
Hardwarezone has jumped the gun and posted the first Redwood HD
5670 review. ATI's new mainstream card looks like quite a performer, as
it manages to outpace Nvidia's GTS 240 and in some scenarios it's even
faster than the 9800 GT. It still ends up a bit slower than ATI's DX10
HD 4770.
Reviewers noted that the HD 5670 has some difficulties coping with
antialiasing on higher resolutions, but this is a mainstream product
and more demanding consumers will probably go for HD 5700 or 5800
series cards anyway.
The HD 5670 is a huge improvement over the 4600 series, but in our
opinion it's still a bit pricey, as it sells for €70 to €100 depending
on the SKU.
