http://www.tweaktown.com ASUS Upcoming Product from Taipei. Our third item of viewing during our visit to ASUS was their upcoming ATI Radeon HD 5850 Voltage Tweak video card. Using the ASUS Smart Doctor video card overclocking software, we saw just how far an ASUS Radeon HD 5850 Voltage Tweak can be overclocked by making adjustments to how much juice the GPU is getting.

  • wtf I can earn 100 dollar by tweaking voltage? Money doesn't grow on trees they come from overclocked 5850

  • You will need to flash the Sapphire BIOS with the one from the ASUS 5850. It will void the Sapphire warranty and there are some very high risks involved as it can render your Sapphire as an expensive paper weight. Google it but do at your own risk.

  • das ding hört isch an wie ein staubsauger ich hab auch ne 5850 aber net OC wofür auch? reicht völlig aus für alles

  • I was answering a comment by another user and was actually saying that no matter how much you overclock this card it will never be a 5870.

    Perhaps you should read things in their entirity before making a comment in the future?

  • @superj1977 horray a 5% difference... Its not worth the price or the power drain.

  • Eh-sus

    not asooos. It really makes me uncomfortable and irritable when I hear that.

  • hey do i need this if i have catalyst

  • @ 0:40 he said "WTF!"

  • the only thing that matters is the difference in stream processors, where the 5870 beats the 5850. but, if u can overclock the 5850, the comparison to make is difference between the 5870's 850/1200 and the 5850's 725/1000. anything above a 900/1225 overclock for the 5850 will easily match or even beat a 5870. ive got a 5850, overclocked to 920/1250, and it performs at least 25% better than it used to. which is an average 7fps increase in metro 2033 and a 8fps increase in crysis warhead

  • i have the sapphire hd 5850 game edition (the one that came with dirt 2). had it since they came out and i've never been able to overclock the thing. overclocking the memory from the default 1000mhz to 1025mhz = instant black screen or white screen with yellow vertical lines. overclocking the gpu isnt nearly as bad but i can't get it past 745 otherwise it will artifact after long periods. changing voltage doesn't help at all. ive fooled around with new bios's but only had worse problems. temp55C

  • I have this card. And btw: THAT IS ONE HUGE ASS OVERCLOCK!
