GeForce FX 5700 Ultra Roundup

Digit Life has reviewed three GeForce FX 5700 Ultra video cards, an AOpen Aeolus GeForce FX 5700 Ultra, Inno3D Tornado GeForce FX 5700 Ultra and Sparkle GeForce FX 5700 Ultra:

The 5700 Ultra GPUs have a good overclocking potential as well. But it doesn’t help them much with only one megapipeline with 4 pixels per clock in cooperation with 4 texture processors. Plus, there’s a problem with the clock speeds on the driver 53.03 which doesn’t let lifting it up over 300 MHz. You can restore the performance by uninstalling the driver, cleaning the register and installing it again. This bug in the driver is very annoying for overclockers. Nevertheless, the cards are selling, and users have the right to know what they are able of and which card is better. Besides, the prices drop down bit by bit, and it’s possible that a user reading this review after a time can find such cards quite tasty if the price is matching.

. . . All the cards look equal, though it’s difficult to give a palm of supremacy to the 5700 Ultra based cards as the FX 5900XT have nearly the same price. I just want to say that Sparkle’s card is equipped with VIVO and ships in a beautiful box.
