Sapphire HD 5850 Xtreme 1GB GDDR5 Pro Reviews

ITreviews‘s review Edit

If you're on a tight budget but still want a good, rich gaming experience then this is the card for you. If the Sapphire HD5850 Xtreme is still a little rich for you budget, then there's always the HD5830 Xtreme, another capable card but this time around it carries a price tag of just £83.99 (inc VAT) instead of the original £200.

Throughout this review, we’ve compared the Sapphire HD 5850 Xtreme 1GB with the Radeon HD 6850 1GB and the GeForce GTX 460 1GB, as these cards have comparable specifications. An HD 6850 will typically cost upwards of £130, though, while GTX 460 1GB cards cost £140. The fact that the £113 Sapphire holds its own, and even outperforms, these cards makes it superb value for money. When judged against the comparably priced (and much slower) GeForce GTX 550 Ti 1GB and the Radeon HD 6770 1GB (a rebranded HD 5770 1GB) it looks even better. If you’re on a tight budget for a graphics card then you need look no further. Just be sure to grab one before they're all gone, as this really is a case of when it's gone, it's gone.
