Radeon HD 5970 ATI First Look (NCIX Tech Tips 56)

[Dayfoxx7000]

@DarknessBeRising i feel bad for you i got a mint condition one of ebay for $180

[Turkish4evers]

this card is almost my dick size

[Armydude771]

WHy is there pron on the card?

[reichstag10]

Sapphire has only chicks on their GPUs and boxes?

[TrimThePussPuss]

Must you plug in both the 6 and 8 pin power plugs? PLEASE ANSWER ME ANYONE

I'm desporate for a GPU and i have my eye in a beeline for this.

[Ptro001]

@TrimThePussPuss yes obviously you need to give this card the power it needs with both 6 and 8 pin PCI-E power connectors, also you spelled desperate wrong

[JeebuzCrist]

@TrimThePussPuss What kind of fucking retarded question is that, you should not build pc's if you don't know.

[TrimThePussPuss]

@JeebuzCrist rude prick

[JeebuzCrist]

@TrimThePussPuss Whatever cunt, atleast I'm not mentally fucking retarded



[TrimThePussPuss]

@JeebuzCrist i dont even know a thing about electronics and was asking politely,its faggots like you who has a fucked up mind not me i wasn't rude to u at all just go get a life other than being a fucking asshole on youtube

[JeebuzCrist]

@TrimThePussPuss "i dont even know a thing about electronics"

Well no shit dumb fuck, you obviously don't know a thing about proper grammar/spelling either. If you don't know anything about electronics why are you even delving into an area that is obviously far beyond your simple minded intelligence level?

[TrimThePussPuss]

@JeebuzCrist I talk how i want to talk you dont need to give a damn about my english and i dont want a debate over the fucking internet like 8 year old retards.I asked a question and it was answered politely by other people so yeah i dont need your negative comments about me anymore ''JeebuzCrist''

[buzz9961]

dude you must change the intro music.lol

[abhishekjpatil]

THIS CARD IS NOT BETTER THAN INTEL 3000

[TyneGibbs12]

@abhishekjpatil Sad you think that. Mega lolz

[sprigs08]

I also have this card !! Running on eyefinity . Check my video ... Great card even maxed out on eyefinity with great fps !! Will be investing in a second 1 for crossfire

[houston34]

i guess u only play games like Mafia, batman series, aka Ati killers

[m4ht1sonni]

i had this card, now i have evga gtx560 ti and it gets better fps than 5970 XD this card is bullshit

[OutlawLovesNewVegas]

@m4ht1sonni Either you're retarded or just stupid.

[houston34]

@m4ht1sonni lol, why Nvidia fanboy always pretend to have had a AMD card and run into ridiculous issue no normal user ever experienced

[m4ht1sonni]

@houston34 :D lol. i have had 4890, 6870, 6950, all of them were doing bad...... exept 4890, it was awesome :DD

[1and1isme]

@m4ht1sonni If so then I am not suprised, considering this card is 2 years older....

[ZytonicRecords]

@m4ht1sonni So you traded a 500 dollar card for a shitty 250 dollar card? Are you an idiot? You obviously had bad drivers. the 5970 is faster than the GTX 580.

[m4ht1sonni]

@ZytonicRecords are u retarted? i sold 5970 and bought 580... 560ti was my backup card....

[mitko1251]

@ZytonicRecords Only just. 

[m4ht1sonni]

Can i crossfire this and hd5870

[WNxAtlas]

@m4ht1sonni Yes.

[SUNNYRAINWIND]

Gonna get

[blanarahul]

2x 5970s are one of the best for 6x monitor eyefinity.

[irockuworld]

@TOTALAwesomeness987 me too, every review i found says this compares with the gtx 580 and trumps the 570, but the passmark benchmark comparison says its #19 and 580 is #2???

[TOTALAwesomeness987]

i just bought one of these on newegg because it was on sale for 300 dollars and it is still slightly faster than a 580 in most cases which is 500 dollars +

[clabszero]

@TOTALAwesomeness987 - It spanks the GTX580 which is a shame really because I used to be a nVidia freak, but recently got a great deal on 2 of these bad boys so that's the way the cookie crumbs. Love these cards and with just one installed because I'm waiting on my extended crossfire bridge to hook up the second I've been able to play Crysis 2 with all the DX11 packs installed and still pull 60.1FPS at 1920x1080p. I'll throw up some vids soon of it in action

[murdercom998]

Can it play hobo hotel

[TeamMCserver]

can i play bf3 on it?

[GreenBoyDope]

@TeamMCserver Yes xD on Ultra

[bloodypinksock]

@TeamMCserver YEA

[codel123456789]

[GT5Enthusiast]

@codel123456789 DX11 applications about 30-40% faster, DX10 20-30% faster. give or take.

[MrIwesseli]

WTF that card is bigger then my Penis and believe me, my penis is HUGE!

[TheIKAIKAIKA]

YOU HAVE A DREAM JOB!!!

[THEGAMINGRULER]

wow i bet this card needs roop attached to the roof of the case to hold it cuz it looks pretty dam heavy

[johnchristian0131]

HEY MY I CROSSFIRE A 5970 AND A 5850 SINCE THE 5970 IS A TWO 5850 GPU?

[v12mini]

@johnchristian0131 Yes.



[FullBlown26]

[9385dee7]

@UnderlordxMusic your really short then :o

[SouthSho450]

wow ! my 4600 1Gb DDR2 really feels like shit right now !

[jewie27]

Fast for 3 months, then outdated.

[JSUTSGJ]

@jewie27 Hah agreed , I used to think it will NEVER get better than this card and NVIDIA's gonna be out of business soon , I was wrong D: GPU's got innovated like 2 times more >.<

[archDeluxxe]

i love how ATI puts sluts on their cards.

[shinn0123]

Will japanese porn not be blurry when i play it with this card? =)

[luchikozi]

[GulBanan4U]

Does it fit in a fractal design define R3? 

[uphill248]

HI, CAN I CHECK IN THE BIOS TO SEE IF MY PROCESSOR HAS BEEN OVERCLOCKED?? PLEASE HELP.

[Manewalis]

i have the gigabyte 5970 , overclcoked 900/1200. 1.2Volts. it still is the fastest card till the 6990 comes out of course.this CARD STILL HAS A LOT TO OFFER .

[uphill248]

HI. I HAVE ATI RADEON HD 5970. I'VE BEEN LOOKING AT THE GAME, "HOMEFRONT". MY SYSTEM CAN PLAY IT, BUT WHEN I CHECKED MY SYSTEM HARDWARE ON A WEBSITE CALLED "CAN YOU RUN IT" UNDER RECOMMENDATION IT SAID MY GRAPHIC CARD IS WEAK. AND I NEED TO UPDATE IT TO ( NVIDIA GeForce 460 / ATI Radeon HD 5700 or better

You Have: ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series.) I THOUGHT THE ONE I HAVE WAS BETTER THEN ATI RADEON HD 5700?? OR EVEN NVIDIA GEFORCE 460??? PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM??

[GoerdingscapePK]

@uphill248 Have you installed the correct drivers?

[uphill248]

@GoerdingscapePK i dont know how can i check on that? to see if i have the right one??

[GoerdingscapePK]

@uphill248 Download driver cleaner pro, the free version ofc.

Then uninstall your ATI drivers, if they are installed.

When you have done that, download the latest drivers from the ATI website.

This would fix it.

[AwesomeGamingReviews]

"It's nearly 12 inches long" Thats what she said!

[superclaw900]

finally!! a card that can play 8 bit mario

[superclaw900]

@superclaw900 haha my friend you have the top comment

[superclaw900]

@superclaw900 why thank you superclaw900, im flattered

[sepphofer1]

@YourPervertNextDoor

2 times hd 5970 = 4 way crossfire-x ^^

[EradicationStation]

I don't know why Radeon keeps claiming that this is the fastest card on the planet. This is the fastest COMERCIAL card on the planet. Both ATI and NVidia make high end professional grade cards for animating buisnesses and such.

[saleall]

can i play Red Alert 2 Yuris's revenge on eyefinity with this card? seriously! i love that game so much, that i always play it once in a while, all the time. would be good tho if its supports it too on eyefinity.

[maggotvenger94]

@YourPervertNextDoor Thats what she said :P

[aurangzib]

the question is will it blend

[jacobmcr858]

@aurangzib Ask that in a year when it's worth $200. And yes, it will blend.

[cartic]

Do I have to connect both 8 pin and 6 pin power cable?

[djBC10000]

@cartic of course u do, other wise it wont run, most cards have two 6-pin power connectors , but this one has one 8-pin and one 6-pin.

[cartic]

@djBC10000 Thank you! Pardon my ignorance, it's been a while since I built my last custom rig. It's all hooked up now.

[PestVolk]

For the first second or two of the video I thought I was looking at the box of the card. fuck what a monster.

[jetonverbani]

how match this grafic cards ???

[ninjaturtle205]

i don't  like the girl on the card

[Randomshit1353]

hey i need a 3870 can you get me the best version of the 3870 plz?

[psychonaut25]

It's good to see that the atrworks on Ati card are really nice. That artwork on the card itself makes me want it :) / BTW. ATI rocks!

[joshodst]

no oblivion? if yes 500 fps!!!

[DABIGGERBIL]

i got a Radeon HD 4670 ITS EPIC!

[whiteland9992]

@DABIGGERBIL LOL. i got the same card. i can play any game on MAX

[TheMichaelOwnz]

@DABIGGERBIL SAME! :O

[tndrckr]

yay i can finnaly play crysis at low at 1280*1024 with 4 x anti aliasing thats right 4 anti aliasing

sarcasim ofcourse

[lalabEsjen]

Yes!! now I can finnaly play pacman!!

[WoodyLuv]

but now you did.. LOL

[arcadefirerocks]

I think I'm going to need to ask my dad for a raise in allowance.

[MegaFoch]

size matter ..... dangit

[Lonesky1988]

Men compensate their penis with the size of their car, nerd compensate their e-penor with the size of their graphic card.

[spudvader86]

@rANDOM1NATiON no, it comes with an adapter.

[myholynepal]

@groudon8: thanks for replying m8. i will be using 4 gb of ram@ 1333 Mhz. the 64 bit means X86 right??

[groudon8]

Would this fit in a Cooler Master HAF X case? I know that the GTX 480 does but this 5970 is significantly longer.

[myholynepal]

i need some help guys......i have a core i5 750 and a hd 5770. what os should i use win7 64 bit or 32 bit?

[groudon8]

@myholynepal It really depends on how much RAM you are using. I would only suggest using 32-bit if you are using 2GB of RAM or less. However, with an i5 750 and a 5770 I would suggest using at least 4GB of RAM. You really need 64-bit to really take advantage of more than 2GB of RAM, though.

[cadentavaricegrtrj]

Unlimited energy sources are out there!But the Oil coporations life depends on covering this up,Get a motor that needs no gas or electric input at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,Be the revolution!

[rorp11]

I want that for playing GTAIV ^^

[spudvader86]

@rorp11 GTAIV is CPU dependent and not GPU dependent. So the game wouldn't run any better. U need to get urself an i7 980x

[MrH4rper]

@spudvader86 So much bullshit in a single post

[spudvader86]

@MrH4rper How is that bulllshit? i have an i7 and when i bought my 5970 i seen no improvement what so ever. It is also true that if u run cards in crossfire/SLi then GTA runs slower 'cause it is CPU dependant. Go and fuck a duck cocknose cause u don't know shit. An i7 980x would help ur system run GTAIV way better than a good CPU and a 5970 would. Thumbs up if u agree, to shut this fool up!

[MrH4rper]

@spudvader86 Oh yeah. lets buy a overprices 6 core to play a game that can only use 4 cores. Very smart

[TheGorcorp]

Almost 12" long, Pfffft. It's got nothing on me ;)

[ventilize]

it looks like a graphic designer from 2010 collaborated his art on some hardware junk heap from the 70s to help himself forget how aweful the appearance actually looks.

[mrshzzit1]

@ventilize stop crying

[TroyPhares]

@rANDOM1NATiON Yeah with mine, I had a converter cable. took the white cord and made it to hdmi put on ur monitor

[TroyPhares]

@rANDOM1NATiON Nope it comes with a vga -> hdmi though

[spudvader86]

@TroyPhares VGA to HDMI is pointless 'cause HDMI is digital and VGA is analog but i know what u mean.

[SophaerLam]

whats the length of this beast ?

[APK190]

@SophaerLam 12 inches

[TroyPhares]

@APK190 a bit more sir

[APK190]

@TroyPhares Yes ok litle bit more but in the video was told 12 inches...

And don't call me sir bc i am not realy old :D

[TroyPhares]

@APK190 <3

[MsiEvgaAsusGigabyte]

is this thing better than the ARES??

[MutilateYOU]

Could I put it in my pants and say it's my special friend?

[spudvader86]

@MutilateYOU I did after playing crysis and i burnt my bell end : (

[daniel9711]

@MutilateYOU yeah mate

[Edge0fPain]

@MutilateYOU

Only if you Crossfire them :D

[MutilateYOU]

@Edge0fPain Well you need a pretty nice size case or else you'll just have a mess and bottlenecking everywhere :S

[Phenomental1ty]

@MutilateYOU xD

[galaxything]

even if you had a monster 4ghz + cpu there are no drivers that run 2x 5970's in xfire mode properly :(

[5585deathmage]

Well this work with Assassin's Creed 2 and make it be able to play in all max HD?

[yyyyyyexe963]

@5585deathmage yes, and it'll be an overkill, 5850 or 5870 is enough, though that the 5970 has cooler temperature at full load compare to 58XX

[5585deathmage]

@yyyyyyexe963 overkill is all what i need :P

[abdullah57habib]

11 ppl are nvidia fanboys

[oHKCOLEo]

@abdullah57habib that was funny 4 months ago, and im sure if you were offered a gtx 480 for free you would take it and ram the nividia penis in your asshole

[Frutoses]

@oHKCOLEo lmao

[oHKCOLEo]

@abdullah57habib +ALSO, radeon cards were mainly made for crossfiring. nvidia are for single cards.

[mathias921]

@abdullah57habib 11 people are arabian.

[Fritmayonaise]

@mathias921 arabian as horses? or arabs as humans?

[davidkerr7]

why doest ati improve there drivers rather that hardware

[JusticeYouWant2010]

I thought Sapphires' HD 5970 TOXIC Limited Edition ( around 900+ MHz) was the fastest card form Sapphire, needs 850 watt power supply , then they have their second fastest hd 5970 ( around 800+ MHz) which also needs 850 watt power supply, then a HD 5970 "OC" version, needs 650 watt power supply and then slower version that also requires a 650 watt power supply. looks like you have the slow version! Just look at the Sapphire site yourself, four versions of the 5970. Oh it's 5000 series not 5800!

[CobraGMW2]

dOES 2 hd 5770 Microstutter alot?

[dharkbizkit]

I really hope that the prices for the 58xx series drops soon and ATI brings a 5890.

[djjanby]

nice but i have a evga 480 lol

[urmomisfineinbed]

asus ares wins.

[saxoman1]

Can it handle pacman?!?!?!??!

Seriously though, my current laptop sucks at starcraft 2, so I need a new pc (and a desktop). But at this price, I can't afford this monster of a card lol. But I know there are many great (albeit less powerful) alternatives that will work great with starcraft 2!

[Bob8673]

@saxoman1 Look at the NVIDIA GTX 460 its the best card to buy right now for the price.

[t205873941]

Captions fail.

[luzac1]

OHHHHHHHHH finally a card that is longer than my penis! yipee

[mathias921]

@killerex010 Then this is a fail card, this is a don't buy!
