#23 - HIS HD 5850 1GB GDDR5 Video Card Unboxing Video

[JoseSFS]

I LOVE HIS UNBOXING AND REVIEWS BUT WHY YOU NEED TO MAKE 3 ******* VIDS OF 2 MINS OR LESS EACH WHEN U CAN DO THE UNBOXING AND REVIEW AT THE SAME TIME.......

[FELIPEPKPK]

Hmm Pobably my next videocard

my HIS4670 needs a rest

[franzken]

mine didnt come with dirt 2 WTF..

[sebiandrei2008]

@franzken bad luck...

[Osvah94]

Can anyone tell me a good motherboard for this Video Card and a AMD Phenom II X6 1055T Thuban ?

[Sergeyx64]

@Osvah94 Gigabyte 870A-UD3

[HeLeX63]

Nice card. In Australia it costs $350 AUD, and the GTX 460 1GB is $250 AUD. GTX 460 only 4-8% slower and 100 cheaper. Ill have to go with the GTX 460

[kiffbohne]

i got it muhahahah

[applebee123able]

"Make sure you ground yourself before you touch it."

And then you set it on the cloth?? Genius.

[matt99881]

God damn there are so many unboxing videos. I know I'm not the only one thinking this, we don't want to see it being taken out of a box, we want to see it being put to use!

[AznUnboxer]

this or a gigabyte brand? dirt 2 isnt included with the gigabyte

[n4f13666]

and dirt2 comes with xfx 5850 too

[mamba360]

nice

i like ur typical style

[gippula]

my opinion...its 110%kickass. played bad company 2 and this card had no probs with everything se to max...8aa and so on...runs fine with 500w psu. 3dmark 06 score 16300

[phoenixsonoma]

wow, i didnt get a tool kit with mine, and i dont remember the foam being next to the video card...

[Alwyn1000]

@phoenixsonoma i bet they just made the foam and tool for him to they could get 100% kickass

[ownedskies]

oh fuk i didnt get shit lmao

[ownedskies]

how come i didnt get Dirt 2? mines ASUS and its from msy but i didnt see the dirt 2 label on the box ?

[AusShinDig]

Because Dirt 2 only comes with the HIS card, each company that puts out a video card offers different bundles.

[AznUnboxer]

@ownedskies some brands dont have dirt 2 with them.

[ahmadclk]

lol why is it that sometimes when people are reviewing a graphics card they also review the box? Its a box, every single product comes with a box, really we dont care about the box.

[AusShinDig]

Because this isn't a review, it is an *unboxing* video. 3DGAMEMAN has a seperate video for the review.

[ispyaspy]

How good is the box?

[Lazo00100001]

i like thease new graphix cards :D prefer xfx though

[67CopperHead]

yea i am defently buying HIS

[PSPfanBOY22]

Will they ever come out with 5850x2?

[67CopperHead]

@PSPfanBOY22 no there wont be a 5850x2 they are makign the 6000s

[PSPfanBOY22]

@67CopperHead

Thanks, you made me cry.

[hille32]

@PSPfanBOY22 Yes, its called the 5970

[PSPfanBOY22]

@hille32

No. The 5970= What we thought what was going to be a 5870x2.

I'm talking about a 58(5)0x2. Please notice thats a "5" and not a "7" .

5850x2

[hille32]

@PSPfanBOY22 Yes its 5850x2 even though the name suggests 5870x2

If you check the 5970's core clock and memory clock they are identical to the 5850, just with 2 GPU's.

I dont know if the cards architecture is more similar to the 5870, but performance is identical to 5850x2

[cisco760ca]

Got 2 sapphires 5850 and gonna wait for prices to go down to make a triple card crossfire =-) oohhhh and gonna give nice overclock

[vitamincracing]

God i love the sound of anti static bags lol... makes me excited

[TrueYears]

card is good but dang 2 connectors.... arghhh

[Dany1148]

Why does the video card have 2 crossfire connectors?

[kidowner]

@Dany1148 so you can have a triple crossfire setup

[IAreCrazyChris]

Needs twice the power

[pokerface3699]

i thought he was going to say "lots of ventilation" at 1:46

[syedjaafar]

guys..is that FREE DIRT 2 or discount for DIrt 2?

[Wastonn]

It's a free coupon for the digital download when the game is released. So to answer your questions, Yes :D

[meteal666head09]

@syedjaafar free but you have to download it.

[67CopperHead]

i want this vidoe card so badly

[V1taLiy86]

Yeah, so what u gonna play with it? Don't tell me MW2...

[arvelos76]

@67CopperHead Yeah but from ASUS... Not HIS crap...

[andrewlee916]

hey is this card good?i am getting it in a couple of days

[korbland14]

yes, this card is very good

[andrewlee916]

but i am getting the sapphire one,is it the same?

[korbland14]

yes, this is the same. ;)

[andrewlee916]

k thy

[0sebastiank0]

lol strange boxcolours for a GPU

[Ikilledyou123]

I recommend a 650w to be on the safe side

[Ikilledyou123]

LOL it isnt a nuclear device where if you dont ground yourself it will blow up! but good tutorial on the unboxing of it :)

[Hypnot47]

it wont blow up, but it can damage the card if u dont do it -.-

[PCMichiana]

So.. *coughs* what do you do with all the hardware you've upgraded from after getting new hardware? hehhehehehe

[AbstractReaIity]

You'll need amps on the +12v rail, wattage rating is fairly meaningless by itself. Hava a look on the sticker on the side of your psu.

[madzane94]

lol any1 notice that his packages like xfx now?

[madzane94]

look's like his loves him lol, like every ati review he does is most likely his xD.

[3DGAMEMAN]

NOTE: The HIS Gamers Tool Kit should also be included

[sabakunogaara92]

nice :)

[redalert139]

He talks like everything are complete tools...

[H1shman]

what do you mean?

[MajinFrahma]

1:28 epic win!

[GamesOnSmashTech]

Hey Rod, What do you do with all tese games you get.. this must be your 3rd copy of dirt2..lol

[legendray2008]

He is a good guy

He is gonna send me a copy =P

[Nitro090995]

He sells them

[TheAmefist]

Wow GDDR5 never knew there was such a thing out yet.

[BigOleEric]

The first card to use GDDR5 was the 4870 which came out June of 2008.

[TheAmefist]

Wow haha I must be living under a rock!

[PikolUploader]

the power button

the reset button

the power button

[ComputerTechTV]

This is a sweet card 5/5

[SimplyCarLo]

Wow HIS copied the XFX Radeon packaging entirely. What's up with that? I like Diamonds and Sapphire though.

[teckim]

XFX ha VERY good warranty, that's the biggest plus.

[Piratearrrr]

Can't wait for the review.

[XxESKIMOxX]

i would think cards would get smaller and more powerful lol. but instead they get bigger make sense but still i would like it to be smaller and sooner or later its going to be the size of the case.

[ki11joy92]

nope. its the gpu that gets smaller. not the card itself

[DaREDrobberZ]

5870 is more powerful than the 5850 of course thats the difference.

Look at some benchmarks

[takeapieandrun]

And its bigger. But thats obvious.

[BohleyK]

Ahh. Crinkling of static bags is music to my ears.

Love that sound!

[jin37uk]

haha so true

[Yamcha67]

YAY

[hodenriss]

The size of the card would make Kid Bengala jealous.

[augustotanaka]

lol... people will have to look at google for kid bengala.

Brasileirinhas rules

[robiscool09]

What is in this box...oh another box..hahah

[deepakm]

This video review made me laugh.

[piez07]

it's UNBOXING dude!!

[Samage89]

WHOOAAHH, you can open it from the bottom AND the top? :D

too much information.

[Mr937595]

online said the 5870 was usually 15-25% faster than the 5850. if ur gaming at 24"+ id recommend a 5870. but if ur a 22" it will even out

[saudikid]

i might buy this card due to the free game

[DediXD]

Dude I want it !!!!

[NikeySunfire]

I just don't get the 2 x 6pin power connectors...how much wattage does this card consume?

[Spect8er1]

about as much as a 4870

[hootis8]

188 full load

[DarkCraft41]

around 140w at load and around 22w at idle.

[NikeySunfire]

shit....thanks ;)

[MGlBlaze]

Well, I don't know about everyone else, but so far I'm definitely liking the new cooler designs on the cards. I'm wondering what the actual heatsink itself looks like... Rodney, do you think you could consider removing the stock cooler and dismantling it in a video to look at the individual parts like the base-plate and heatsink?

As far as the 4870 went, I found the stock GPU heatsink to be surprisingly small...

[madjimms]

Actually, I was wondering the same thing.

I'm sure he would though seeing as he received it in exchange for a review =)

[MGlBlaze]

Nice to see someone agrees!

Honestly, though, the actual GPU heatsink on the 4870s I got were surprisingly small... and strangely enough, even though they were both from sapphire, one of the sink bases was copper... and the other was aluminium. No wonder one ran so much hotter than the other.

I think 'heatsink disections' like that could be both useful and interesting; at the very least to the overclockers watching these videos.

[cusinndzl]

Nice video.

[JaxxDaemon]

am getting the 5080. I hope it drops down in price after a few weeks on sale :)

[xboxnissan]

[...] And the video card!

[DieChaplinMelone]

Nicest card on the market!

Not too expensive, but very fast!

[SRSLover]

Its expensive. Lol..

[buzzin92]

not really

[DieChaplinMelone]

It's cheaper than a GTX285 and faster sooooo...?

[killerclown789]

sooooo...ATi fucking rock!!!

[DRFNL]

Great quality video as always, love your videos! Keep it up.

[youtubasoarus]

Looks great!

[derbigpr500]

Lol 5850 is about 3 times faster than your 8800.

[SillySnake72]

lol @ guy who spent a bunch of money on a 8800 gtx when they were cool and is too stupid to accept the fact that something is better

[TheRealNinjaGeek]

retard

[bigrigross]

you do know that the 5850 is the same performance as the 285. And my old 4870 slaughters the 8800. That card was good 3 years ago

[iheartcomps]

5850 is actually 15% faster then the 285

[buzzin92]

dude, even the 4850 dominates the 8800.. it even kicks the crap out of the 9800's too.

[0krazykyle0]

8800 and 9800 are the same performance wise.....

[buzzin92]

9800 is a die shrink of the 8800 so yeah.. but the 4850 is cheaper then them both, and runs allot cooler too.

[0krazykyle0]

agreed personally i love the His iceq cards, only running a 4670 turbo atm. But runs so cool 45c at load.

[banido]

No, the 4850 actually heats up a lot more than the 9800GTX, that's why a lot of manufacturers like Gainward made versions of that card with larger coolers like the Gainward Golden Sample, I bought that one and it was still pretty hot. My friend had a 9800GTX and it was cooler.

But the 4850 is faster than the 9800GTX (well only slightly, and not in all games)

However, the HD5800 series are really a lot cooler and energy efficient than the HD4800 series, definitively worth it.

[thelasthallow]

yeah it has been proven many times that an ATI 4850 is more powerful than a 9800 cards

[ChunkyMilkification]

an idiot will think other wise lolz

[thelasthallow]

a Nvidia Fanboy will think otherwise. anyone whos smart knows that the 9xxx seeries was just a re hash of the 8xxx seeries.

[ChunkyMilkification]

true very true....only card i see from the 9 series to beat the 4850 is the 9800 gx2 lolz...but thats a duel gpu lolz the gtx+ is on par with ot.....but that about it lolz

[MonkeysGrowOnTrees]

obvious troll is obvious

[SPFIREHAWK2]

Keep dreamin.

[ChunkyMilkification]

um a 9800 gtx beats ur card and 4850 beats it a little...what the hell do u think a 4850 will do to it lolz moron lolz

[waackomann]

@0krazykyle0 my 4890 runs idle at 30c ... and thats at 1000 Mhz

[onoff314]

You got a godly cooler? never seen one idle below 50 unless your ambient is like 5

[waackomann]

lol ... i guess so :P But that is when the fan is at 100% xD ahhaa forgot to say that :P When its at stock fan settings its around 50

[Moothead2]

Is it just me that can visualise Rodney ringing up HIS and going "Hello again i'm Rodney Reynolds...."?

[sajkes]

I really like the design of this card , looks really tidy :)

[yitih]

niiice o.0

[radkilla]

wat 4850s are talkin about? cuz im using one right now...

[Charlaweyd]

5850 not 4850

[radkilla]

i replay to someone else u dumb noob.

[ArnoldHC]

1:29

He sounds like a pirate

[raruenify]

More or less the same layout as the Sapphire HD4890 Vapour-X

[TylertheGeek28]

nice looking, its good that ATI r getting back in the game, new cards r coming out and slaughtering other cards lol, nvidia has a little competition again, but maybe not for long when the gtx 300 card some out, nice unboxing

[RUDY2295]

Thats is probably the smartest comment ive seen all day...

[TylertheGeek28]

ha ha Thanks

[arnaxsas]

Yeah I really like 5000 series because its so power fficient and doesnt get hot aswell oh and by the way, crossfire with these cards works so so well! ;) Oh and nice vid 3DGAMEMAN!

[evenk93]

I like the design. Pretty stiff prices on the new 5800 series. Does anyone know if the nVidia 300 series can run on x58 motherboards, Asus p6t in particular?

[djtheextremegamerpro]

just about any video card will run crossfire and sli on a x58. Ati = Crossfire and Nvidia = SLI

[evenk93]

I understand that. But I don't think my P6T x58 supports ati cards.

[bigrigross]

all x58 boards support sli and crossfire

[grpace]

Not completly true. As they all "can." Just some manufactures don't get sli certification on their boards cause its cheaper that way.

For example. the Asus P6T and the P6TSE, the SE edition will not support SLI and it is $20 cheaper.

[aplayaz2000]

rod wuts the point of the disc if drivers from the website is newer or better

[thierryvt]

for people without internet?

[TankerUK]

Not everyone has internet access.

[Nopiw]

if you build a new pc, you may install all drivers n shit before connecting to the interwebs?

[TheBS1]

You should be getting the newest drivers from the internet...

[Nopiw]

orly Cpt. Obvious?

[aplayaz2000]

wut? u dont need video drivers to visit the web

[Skutz0r]

Rodney i got a question, whats the difference between GDDR5 and GDDR3?

[legice]

the higher the number,the faster it is

[REVHE4D]

I am not Rodney, but gddr3 is a lot slower than gddr5 so you will get less frames per second.

[Nopiw]

this has already been answered by Rodney

[oc5nsli341nforce4]

Finally something I just might be able to afford instead of buying and sli-ing vintage G80s GT200s.

[kidowner]

oh no:( they didnt include the toolkit like in the 5870 from HIS so i wont get this but i will get the 5870 :D i want the tool kit :P

[3DGAMEMAN]

I just sent an email to HIS regarding this. Maybe the toolkit is included, but was missed in a few boxes. I'll post a message later once I receive confirmation on this matter.

[marauder2142]

dang :( what a ripoff. But when are your benchmarks coming? :D:D. Very excited about the 5850, as im not going to spend a 5870's price on a card.

[MGlBlaze]

Personally, I'm going to wait for a while until the prices on stuff like the 5870 and SSDs drop and become more affordable; although that said, the 5850 looks awesome too. I think the 5850 surpasses even the 4870X2's performance level?

[kidowner]

hehe...... yea me too im gonna buy my first build rig next year and maybe the y will hit as low as 200GPB since atm the 5870 is around 300GPB :)

[superbursihido]

Ati vs Nvidia which one is best for gaming?

[club4ghz]

hello again im rodney renolds and welcome to another unboxing video today im looking at evga gtx 380

[3DGAMEMAN]

If EVGA sends it, I'll unbox & review it ;)

[club4ghz]

:D...

[tastyryan]

Hopefully Nvidia will release theirs within this year, but i highly doubt it lol.

[WheelchairAccessible]

Not happening, most likely not until the end of next summer :O

[xboX121212]

yes thank you for this vid im getting this thank you very mutch 3DGAMEMAN

[GamblerBE]

Hi rodney, awesome video as always, but I was wondering. Is it worth investing in directX11? I've got an 4890 ATM but I was thinking for going crossfire in the future instead of buying like an 5870. Will the difference just in direct X not in performance be big?

Thx already,

[UnrelentingAssault]

o_o Want....

[Nopiw]

I hope the review will cover 2 HD5850 compared to 1 HD5870

[waackomann]

Great video as always Rodney :)

[BLADEOF4]

do you giveaway the games that come with the cards??? Cuz ill take the Dirt 2 :D

[PinkSilverWolf]

you should do a Review of

XFX 850watt black PSU

and XFX 5850 HD

i see no one doing reviews of them

[bigrigross]

tigerdirect/ computer tv just did one today, its up on youtube

[CerealzTheDude]

nice this is cheaper than 5870 right?

[waackomann]

yes

[MadHatter52190]

i want it.

[lolzhaxor]

mmhm..

[FixedHDD]

first!

very good Rodney

[xoANONiMUSox]

to FixedHDD:

whats the point in being an ass?
