HIS 5870 Turbo Crossfire Review

Eye Candy

Hopefully by now we're all really familiar with the 5870, and the HIS has all the tools you'd expect such as HDMI, DVI and DisplayPort output for Eyefinity.

Visually the cards are dominated by two things. The iCooler V and the Modern Warfare 2 labelling. We also have a nice bit of advertising on the top of the card, which will let anyone who looks through your case window know where your money went.

The iCooler V is a serious hunk of aluminium that thankfully retains the some of the rear exhausting qualities of the reference card. So we wont end up with too much of a toasty case. The fan is much slimmer than the ATI reference version which should help keep noise low.

Definitely some sexy looking cards. Blue board and fan works nicely together.
