#60 - HIS HD 5870 iCooler V Turbo 1GB GDDR5 Video Card Unboxing Video

[ivanlagrossemoule]

Yo dawg, we put a box in your box....

[bayandsl]

a game already installed in the video card? how is that posible? does it comes a storage drive in it?

[chrisvillan88]

They should include Bad Company 2 instead

[rubenhoed]

Modern warfare 2 can lick my ass... any PC gamer knows it suck.

[VideoBlogs2012]

3D GAMEMAN : HD5870

Me: Asus GTX 480 who win?

p/d i like brand HIS.

[danflood94]

the 5670 rapes mw2 for christ sakes

[TMNoob3]

@forthewolf325

Tru that bro! :D

[dalekdestoryer]

does anyone know if a pci-e x 16 (2.1) card will work in the 2.0 slot in my motherboard.

[TMNoob3]

@dalekdestoryer

Yes

[solivetunion]

so if u have the coupon, can u present that to any game store and they will give u the game for free or is it for ingame content???

[samppa951]

@solivetunion no u can get game from steam for free

[chchang1]

i cooler V vs vapor-X vs Twin frozr II

Which one??

[BKsMassive]

@chchang1

DO NOT GET THE X-VAPOR! you can not over clock any further than 765Mhz D:

[firetruckracer]

MAKE ONE WITH BAD COMPANY 2 ;D 

[myuzakitheglitcher]

Could someone please tell me if the iCoolerV Turbo or BSF (Blower Style Fan) is better?

[Th3Raz3r]

Got mine today with a 955 OC to 3,6Ghz! It's truly amazing! I recommend this card to everyone who wants to play any game maxed out! I had a 8500GT and an AMD X2 3800 @ 2,0Ghz before. The improvement is huge but the price is too. But I'm so happy now. It took a LONG time to save the money for this though. :)

[PPRUVIAN]

Who is the best brand? HIS, Shappire, Diamond, Power color, XFX, Gigabyte, ASUS?

[FameswProductions]

@PPRUVIAN Bu asus cause its the best for overclocking since you can change power voltage :D

[AznUnboxer]

I'd Say HIS,MSI,XFX, Sapphire and Asus. Powercolor Isn't as a good brand as the others.

[Saxton519]

sapphire is the best ati distrib

[TheMusicMaker001]

hmm, i wonder what's under this... thevideocard...

[Janette066]

Mind explaining on why u think HIS is terrible.

Curious as to see what reason you can find since they are one of the top Ati distributors.

[a7x5631]

Does ATI give him these cards to review? ATI is great, but HIS is...just terrible.

[captainclayman]

@a7x5631 HIS is a good brand, idk what you're talking about

[trousien]

why don't they jsut include mwf2 in the box... u already spend over 400 for the damn card itself they can jsut throw a freebie in cheap ati

[DansTechView]

I don't got computer that Will run that

but i want to buy it and put in case and put it on show . that video card has got to be coolest on by far

[IHunger4Battle1]

Coolest until you play Bad Company 2 perhaps. MW2 was an epic fail for PC gamers.

[DansTechView]

@IHunger4Battle1  I heard the Consul version was better . Witch i think that kind of suck

a lot people play shooter games on the PC not Consul.

[IHunger4Battle1]

I honestly hate playing consoles. I have a 360 and a Wii, but my son is the one that plays those. MW2 looks a lot better on PC than it ever could on 360 or PS3...watch their hands...with a decent video card, PC's show 5 fingers....consoles show a mitten.

[MageThief]

You are right Rodney, a case like that looks really sweet. Hope that more company makes nicer boxes.

[Ensyder]

i like the black finish on the back of the card.

[xmurder95x]

this is just a nice card.. but i dont have the money for it -_-'

[xXB3nTTwiGXx]

Looks amazing

[ipnhesbro]

looks like we have a box in a box :p 1:30

[chemicznyx]

pffff Nvidia 6800gt power!!!!!!!!

[marcusnns]

He cuts too deep.

[Jspeterson]

Too bad modern warfare 2 doesn't use 50% of the power of the card on the highest settings

[TheAuchamp1]

@Jspeterson too bad you dont too..

[robbielex]

@TheAuchamp1 lol wut?

[warhunterNL]

haha, its not a good combination MW2 sux ass and the 5870 doesnt. dont even go into a conversation CoD4 was wayyyyyyy better for S&D MW2 needs to be more balanced....

[hitachi088]

Lol , the design of the cooler suck ....

Best design for a video card =

air enter from the back of the card ( inside the case ) and pass tru the heatsink , and go out of your case ...

[NGT2O6]

i don't like those fans, i want a radiatefan

[KillaMarci]

By far the best looking video card

[jaw2floor]

And I thought my 8600GT was good....

[KingSamLopez]

Wait... why is there only one CFX Port. God Damn it i want

2GB Liquid Cooled 1GHZ overclocked 5870s in 4 Way Crossfire on an AMD 48 Core System(12 Core per CPU).

[FedoraFTW]

that card is so fucking awesome

[jmarkula]

and power source will be like,what? 1000-1200 W? turn your lights off from your apartment, while your playing.. :-P

[soma1509]

The box itself would've been better...without the MW2 label. It makes the card look bad.

[Alaron251]

That is a frigging beast of a card. That would be ludicrously powerful to crossfire them, imagine the watts it would take.

[kidowner]

with a 850w you would be good..

[MegaJ0sh]

thaportal are u rubbish at cod, so u dont like it? it is an amazing game.

love the videos. keep them coming.

[109jamil]

man that card looks cool

[FRURMELLL]

Pretty card!

[CyberBeatAustralia]

You actually seem a lot more relaxed in this video than you normally are....:D

[zgarner2]

Bad company2 theme?:D

[iTehTunePawd]

wow no anti-static plastic bag? O_o

[ashleybeshir]

very nice wish ı had one

[thaportal]

MW2,come on you don't even need a graphics crad to play that shitty game

[scherfose]

it does, when you play on a few huge tvs :D

[AndreaFranchitti]

@thaportal

yeah.. i play it with lot of details with my 4670 @ 1680x1050

[HowdyAntti69]

Looks nice.

[murreboy]

Why not Badcompany 2 Card :)?

[zgarner2]

I was just thinking the same thing! LOLZ

[vanhakaveri]

MW2 ,!,,!

[hesoyamhesoyamjaugi]

feels like if he was drunk

[DutchSquad1337]

ll@ 2.25

[AdrianNiveau]

great card mw2 !!!

[GTASANANDREASCJ]

i think, when came this Pproduct also on a 5850/5830(and the same theme) it's much better than Dirt 2.

[KuruGDI]

Even I don't have COD:MW2 so far I wouldn't buy a video card juyt because it's included. The important question for me would be if the video card and the game together are cheaper or are they as expensive as if you would buy them separately...

[ashleybeshir]

@KuruGDI cheaper have a look

[zhiheng2005]

No 7-in-1 gamers tool kit?

[kidowner]

yea :/ i was surprised.. and i have mw 2.. i prefer dirt 2 :/

[jaja1818]

ok the box improved-check

nicer biger fan-check

A nice game included-finally-check

5 series bugs and issues-sighs-check...am

getting ready to rma this card..shit

[MarkTheTechGuy]

Sweet review keep up the good work take a look at my iphone apps and gadgets reviews channel

[NitroProffin]

oh rodney i notice a mistake =) you said a DVI to VGA adapter =/ when it's a VGA to DVI adapter =) i just thought that i would let you know and no im not ranting at you im just helping you out lol you are a PRO reviewer and making mistakes as simple as that is naughty ;)

[LAZYS0D]

No, it is dvi to vga, why would they make a vga to dvi dongle for a card that only supports dvi and hdmi?

[NitroProffin]

no if you think about it if you have a VGA lead and the card only has a DVI port the adapter converts the VGA lead to a DVI plug, see VGA to DVI =)

[4ourTimber]

@NitroProffin

emmmmmm......

its really a DVI to VGA adapter

[NitroProffin]

hey all are HIS GPU's any good ? u know like ups and downs of HIS gpu's

[TheYamakasiize]

wow !! nice video card .

i like the mod 2 theme !

i hope graphic card company would do something like this in the future ....

[FuenfamTag]

Hello Rodney,

great video. HIS produced a ver y nice looking video card. I´m looking forward to your next video review of this product.

Take care and many greetings.

FuenfamTag

[lucianos1990]

1:31 yo dawg

[Lvaneede]

My gigabyte 8600GTS that I got two years ago had a big picture of the UEF Armored Command Unit from supreme commander on the front. It looked pretty cool

[mikejw721]

sell the mw2 coupon! :D

[Razear]

I noticed you got MW2 on Steam, Rod. Wonder where you got it from. ;)

[TraNWhiZ]

This is exactly the same 5870 (performance wise).

You don't really need this, for 2 reasons, this card is a bad overclocker you won't get much from overclocking it, and also the stock cooling is superior.

Personally, I don't like this kind of cooling, it pops hot air into the case.

Blower fans are my favorite.

[keffje007]

hd 5870 not good for overclocking???, some overclockers broke the record:1.41 ghz stable

[TraNWhiZ]

@keffje007

Yeah some people got it to high clocks, but with really high voltage, not easy as just higher the clocks,

and this card don't profit much from high clocks, kind of disappointing.

[ICDWILL117]

MW2, what a joke. Any true PC gamer knows this. Card is a beast though.

[Alwyn1000]

@ICDWILL117 even though they took some features out its still good for pc

[SgtMustang]

Was the game even in the box?

[newkie2008]

Man i miss the old iceq turbo versions :/

[auricom242]

you scarry

[burtonrider316]

just a question. why dont you do any nvidia reviews?

[utubeb14]

because they stink and never come out with new products

[tallandme13]

yeah buy a card with a picture of every 12 year olds favorite game -_-

[Wakkajakka]

@tallandme13

Lulz

[sandiegoborn32]

Beautiful video card and box art!

[thekyman21]

Nice looking video card! Wish it wasnt so expensive lol

[PsyDoX2007]

sweeet!

[ki11joy92]

i think that the company is going to lose money because no one is going to get nothing with mw2 on it. peice of garbage game.

[DaREDrobberZ]

For PC gamers at least, and seriously anything can run MW2. I'm still on single-core AMD Athlon 64 2.2ghz and an ATI HD 4350 (512mb) and I can run MW2 decent res (1024x768) and maxed out settings. cant wait for my new build.

[ki11joy92]

@DaREDrobberZ lol thats low-res. not even close to decent brahh.

[DaREDrobberZ]

@ki11joy92 I'm still on CRT, and its better than Xbox 360 res.

[ki11joy92]

@DaREDrobberZ LOL better than 360 res but still not great.

oh, and killzone 2 on ps3 has high res textures + runs @ 1280x720 =DD

[iNfx1]

Both my PC and my Xbox run MW2 at 1920x1080, ran through the same monitor and I can't say either of them look different whatsoever. Maxed out on the PC looks almost identical to Xbox settings, but Xbox has no Anti-Aliasing.

[UpbeatBarracuda]

xbox doesnt display at 1080p, its upscaled, and there is no way that they both look the same, either ur blind or ur pc isnt on max

[iNfx1]

Well the game box says 1080p on the back, on the Xbox box.

Hooked up via HDMI cable, it's definately 1080p, and it definately looks the same.

[piffidanne]

The xbox does not run mw2 in native 1080p it upscales it from 720.

[manutube8080]

yyaaya

[McKDunnoAnything]

Celeron 2.2ghz; radeon 3450 512mb; same settings as you :P

[DaREDrobberZ]

@McKDunnoAnything

Holy shit i used to be on a radeon 3450 512mb, I cant believe you can run it on those settings. I just upgraded from that to a 4350, not alot of a difference in CoD2 (in DX9 same fps rate). Well I just cant wait to upgrade in June.

[epicwarding]

You mean shit res?

Dude, any game will run max at that shit resolution

The new cards are getting faster so that they can run max at 1920 x 1080

and even more, that they can run games in 3 monitors

if you would buy ureself a 24 inch full hd monitor, and you would be able to go up to 1920 resolution, you would start to feel limits of your computer right away

Btw, any decent gamer runs games in 1920x1080 and AA x 8

[sebaswildboy]

@epicwarding

LOL and real gamers know their shit, 1920x1080 with x8 aa is a waste.

[SgtMustang]

Any decent gamer knows that 1920x1080 with any AA at all is stupidly pointless, there is barely any aliasing at that high resolution anyways, so any more than 2x AA is overkill.

[N1ght3d]

My 4870 was a piece of garbage. Search 4870 stutter and micro stutter.

Never again will I buy anything made by AMD or ATI.

[kidowner]

garbage why? 4870 is a good card

[bloodreighn]

DO.WANT., Hey Rodney. just send one or 2 over to Nz for me??? they are soooo expensive here haha

[xboxnissan]

Pretty Video card :D

[mhaneline]

I have to say, not much of an ATi fan over the years but this card definitely looks nice.

I hope the video review shows some in-game footage and has some FPS comparisons between other cards.

Also, I'd like to see if there were any driver issues, because I know driver issues are plaguing all the new ATi cards.

[damianson]

took my mw2 back once i installed it lol, dont need the dvd to play online

[521scotty125]

you cant return pc games

[damianson]

Can if you re shrinkwrap them, you can buy what you need online cheap

[kidowner]

you do realize that its stealing?

[hatamakoto]

lol there's not alot of people buy MW2 on pc since there's no dedicated server, so its make since its free.

[9abuilder]

No doubt. Infinity Ward marketing Dept. needs to get more MW2 games out there in the pc version because of the decision to exclude dedicated servers has put off alot of potential buyers. This once die hard COD fan lost alot of respect for the franchise when that decision was made.

[GreenyPoop]

so do we have to download MW2 if we buy the card? Why not just include the cd? Not everyone has 1 mb/s internet speed.

[animatahr]

by 1 mb/s second you mean 1 megabyte, or 1 megabit?

[savior02]

That shit looks fucking sick and MW2 is badass

[takeapieandrun]

Didn't Rodney already test out a 5870?

[littlesegall]

there are more than one made by different companies

[hootis8]

mw2 SUX...... but it looks nice

[waackomann]

Wow, MW2 GPU?!?!? After all the crap they gave us PC gamers? no thanks. I think GPU manufacturers should stick with the good ol' fasioned ATI Ruby on the front ;) Loving my 4890 :D

[Moimkds]

"And looks like we have a box within the box" haha :p

The card looks so nice!

[rckjmsbtch77]

Give me a free build Rodney

[SleepyPanchoo]

really dunno about having a game take over the product like that. games are so hyped these days. but the design of the box and gpu is really nice. Just take out the MW2, not everyone who buy high end graphic cards like MW2. I mean seriously, if the game is that good, just have a combo deal w/ the game.

[fireblind]

there is

[waackomann]

I know, it's like IW think everyone loves Call of Duty...

[xBlueXFoxx]

omg that looks sick, do want.

[CVRealMan]

I have always loved the way HIS makes there boxes look!

[Snapscape]

Why not pack in a game that actually puts the card to the test? MW2.... lol! Might as well throw in Combat from the Atari 2600.

[Warrior59]

Nice cooler but being branded with MW2 I will not buy sorry. :D

[axelman145]

And if u notice here, they have some foam on the bottom to protect it.. OMG I LOLD SO HARD XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[GrimTheToad]

lol, this is retarted, they put mw2 with a 5870 even though you can play on max (i do) with a 5770 and a athlon x2 240

[DaemonAnt]

Depends on your monitor though, as well as anti-aliasing.

[TearsOfWar1]

Idk about bad company 2 but I have played a demo of bad company 1 and I thought it was total shit IMO...So I was like "WTF?" when BC2 came out...

[Jubiejai]

Hello again, you are Rodney Reynolds

[ayubzafar]

lol, yeah

[anotherone10]

They need a Bad Compay 2 version, not MW2 ;)

[aplayaz2000]

very nice card, pretty huge though

[IHunger4Battle1]

I agree with a lot of folks here that say that BFBC2 should've been included in the artwork...A lot of PC gamers aren't going to get this mainly because of how we were treated right before MW2 was released. They basically said "Hey y'all...thanks for the cash, but those that play consoles have more cash for us." Smart, but they've lost thousands of customers in the long run I'm sure.

[phoenix1333]

Most of their customers are 9yo kids so yep.

[dioxviad]

hello again Rodney Reynolds. consider a mustache?

[cyrax1311]

fuck I hate MW2 just a bunch of fucking fuck heads that made the pc port for it.

[PSNcrazy95]

mw2 sucks ass

because its full of shit

i hate mw2 and this version of the 5870

[Enfeeblement]

Hmmm, strange title & description, Rodney.

The 5870 is a beast, such a big card. I'm curious to see how this new design cooler performs. I bet the actual cooling will be fine (those chips aren't as hot as previous generations were) but I'm more interested how silent it is.

[georgekheiralla]

bad company 2 RAPES mw2 IMO

[jaycob619]

MW2? they should of tryed a deal with DICE to get bad company2 with the card!

[GarrettBMXes]

No you get crossfire (;

[TheMusicMaker001]

How Dare you to speak like this to Rodney?

[jaycob619]

man thats bang out of order, you need to take that back! before you get alot of unwanted hate mail!

[PUBL1CxEN3MYxD]

thats a fucking gigantic card.

i must have it.

[dannyphantom783]

But that's 5870 video card.Go compare with ATI 5970 and 5870 video card.

[dacooter]

Wow.. if you like Gigantic things come visit me! haha

[Mr937595]

2:30 LMAO the foam is the important thing

[KapteinFruit]

I like the look of my XFX 5870 much better. I think that looks ugly.

[mercutzzio]

still too expensive man...

[Txotxoloco94]

holy shit!

[ArnoldHC]

nice title
