We've always been a big fan of the lesser cards here at OC3D. They are cheap to buy and usually can be overclocked to give performance that you'd expect from a much more expensive card.The HD6870 in particular is one we love as it's great in a single-card...
Decent to good performance, Good overclocking headroom, Supports all AMD-features like Eyefinity, Good a relatively silent cooler
Compared to the price the performance is a bit to far from the HD6850
The HD6790 is AMD's latest card aimed at the $150 mid-level market between the HD5770 and the HD6850. It performs pretty well and can even handle many games at the highest quality settings, something that is nice for a card around $150/€129. However, ...
Good performance improvement over HD 5770, Reasonable pricing, Up to five active displays, Native full-size HDMI output, Support for DirectX 11
Noisy cooler, High power draw in Blu-ray playback, Requires 2x 6-pin power connector, DirectX 11 relevance limited at this time, No support for CUDA / PhysX[/list]
Radeon HD 6790 is AMD's answer to NVIDIA's GTX 550 Ti. Both cards sit in the $150 segment which is key for budget gamers who don't want to shell out $200 for their card. HD 6790 delivers solid gaming performance for all resolution up to 1680x1050. 1920...
AMD's Radeon HD 6790 is an interesting beast in many different ways, but not all of those ways are entirely flattering. Who heard of the HD 6790 prior to the last week or so? I searched the Web up and down for leaks of the past few months, and couldn'...
The new Radeon HD 6790 is a serious competitor to the GeForce GTX 550 Ti. In our tests, this new video card from AMD was up to 23% faster than its competitor, except on Far Cry 2, where both video cards achieved the same performance level. The GeForce ...
The scatter plot below, which tracks overall performance on the Y axis and prices on the X axis, sums up the Radeon HD 6790's showing quite well. (In case you're wondering, we worked out overall performance by averaging frame rates across all of our game...
Significant speed boost over previous-gen card, Outpaces competing Nvidia card in some recent games
Larger, more power-hungry than AMD's higher-end HD 6850, as well as Nvidia's parallel card
The HD 6790 brings new levels of gaming pop to cards around $150, but it’s also big and power-hungry. Most users will be better off with the slightly pricier HD 6850 or Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 550 Ti. ...
If we look back through the history of GPU releases, the $150 price point has always been hotly contested. Recently, there has been a bit of a lull since both NVIDIA and AMD have been content to lower the prices of existing cards rather than introduce ...
In terms of performance, the new Radeon HD 6790 is the perfect foil to NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 550 Ti. In most instances, the Radeon comfortably beats the GeForce GTX 550 Ti while operating at moderate temperatures and consuming slightly less power. But i...
