ATI have just launched their latest mainstream DirectX 11 graphics card, the Radeon HD 5830. This new model features a GPU clocked at 800hz and a 1120 shader/16 ROP design. On the memory front, this card sports a 256-bit memory interface and 1GB of GDDR5 clocked at 4000MHz QDR.


This could be a good GPU but at the moment it is simply too expensive when compared to the HD 5770. Having said that, until NVIDIA comes out with some worthwhile DirectX 11 offerings AMD has no incentive to be aggressive with their pricing.
