Con il comunicato stampa di seguito allegato, AMD ha annunciato la scheda grafica ATI Radeon HD 5670, una soluzione orientata al mainstream che va ad ampliare la già ricca linea di controller grafici DirectX 11 denominata HD 5000 Series, che già include la ATI Radeon HD 5970, e le famigie ATI Radeon HD 5800 Series e ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series.
La scheda, che nella sua implementazione reference può vantare un MSRP di $99, è comunque dotata di tutte le tecnologie più recenti, con cui sono equipaggiati i modelli superiori: tra esse citiamo, oltre al supporto di DirectX 11 e, quindi, dei game più recenti come Colin McRae: DiRT 2 e BattleForge, le funzionalità proprietarie ATI Eyefinity e ATI Stream.
In accordo al produttore, la nuova ATI Radeon HD 5670 può assicurare una potenza di calcolo massima pari a 620 GigaFLOPS ed esibire l'adozione di memoria locale di tipo G-DDR3: tali feature rendono, a nostro parere, questo prodotto particolarmente indicato come soluzione per l'upgrade delle configurazioni hardware non recentissime.
