GPUSED’S TAKE

The verdict

The 2GB HD 5870 expanded an already formidable DirectX 11 flagship with more GDDR5 memory. Some contemporary 2GB boards targeted demanding multi-monitor use, but the owner's exact board is unknown, so the extra memory is the safe distinction rather than a claim about its outputs.

HIS documents a 2GB GDDR5 HD 5870; this does not establish which partner board GPUsed tested.

A board-specific test SKU is not supplied with this profile. It identifies the recorded GPU variant; a particular card’s dimensions, cooler and power connections need their own check.
