MSi R5450-MD512H

Thu, 22 Apr 2010 09:25:20 -0400

The MSi R5450-MD512H is a low cost video card for people who need to take some load off of their main CPU for graphic processing. While it is compatible with most graphic standards, a low speed processor and memory will make it suitable for casual games. Those building a home theater can take advantage of its HDCP support, however, to stream video to a variety of outputs.

The processor is a 650MHz ATI Radeon HD 5450 processor, which is supported by 512MB of DDR3 memory. The memory itself is clocked at 650MHz and uses a 64-bit interface to exchange data with the processor. The card uses a PCI-E 2.1 slot, and outputs in VGA, DVI-I, and HDMI. While it can manage resolutions of up to 2560x1600, expect a major performance slow-down at this level of detail. Both DirectX 11 and OpenGL 3.2 are supported.

EVGA GeForce 9800 GT SuperClocked

Thu, 15 Apr 2010 16:04:43 -0400

The EVGA GeForce 9800 GT Superclocked video card is the same as the original 9800 GT, only overclocked. This means that the processor and memory are running faster than the original settings would have allowed them to. Otherwise, it is physically the exact same card. This means a slightly improved performance at the cost of more heat generation and power usage. The card comes with a large cooling fan. This is a physically larger card, so a full-sized tower is recommended to house it. It runs graphic programs and games well, but doesn't achieve high frames per second.

The GPU runs at 650MHz with 112 processing cores, and is supported by 512MB of memory running at 60.8GB/s. There are two DVI-I ports and a HDTV-7 output. The card is SLI capable, but with the fan in the way you'll need to double-check the dimensions of your motherboard to make sure it will fit.

Like its superior counterpart, the R5870-PM2D1G hosts three DVI ports and a single HDMI interface. Three monitors can be simultaneously connected to receive content up to a 2560x1600 resolution. Included also are military-class components, the Hi-c CAP next-generation capacitor, and Proadlizer capacitors. Together, the high-quality components allow for better transmission efficiency, a reduced operating temperature, and better quality power generation.
