PCWizKid's Test System
Intel Core i5 661 (at various speeds starting at 3.3Ghz and up)
MSI P55 GD85 Motherboard and JetWay H55 Blue Motherboard
The Axle3D ATI Radeon HD 5670 is intended for average PC Gaming and daily PC usage supporting Windows Vista and Windows 7 Aero, desktop work on multiple monitors (can be high-resolution as shown in the video review), high definition content playback is supported with the HDMI output making it also an ideal graphics card for a HTPC. As pointed out in the video review the Axle3D graphics cards stand out because of their additional benefit from the large cooler and fan. Also the design of the cooler takes the airflow inside your PC to cool the GPU and then pushes out that warm and heated air outside the PC. The card performs well at average settings on all games and even on high settings with some. Because of its low power consumption and low temperatures PCWizKid gives this a "Recommended" choice award for a mainstream entry level gaming video card.
