Powercolor HD6850 Single Slot Edition Review

To overclock today we are using Sapphire’s TriXX software tool, which is one of the best overclocking tools on the market.

Considering this is a single slot card, these overclocks are very healthy indeed.

The overclocking enables the card to generate another 2.5 frames per second. Its not a huge increase, but noticeable.

  1. Looks great. I like the fact many media system will suit this, and its more powerful than the usual single slot option

  3. The noise figures are helpful, but I want to get two for a new crossfire based media center in a HTPC lian li chassis. will the noise be offputting? its hard to know.

  4. Its a neat idea for a fairly high powered card, but in reality most people shouldnt touch it. they are better off with a dual slot design as they always run cooler and produce less noise. shame they didnt opt for a bigger fan which would spin slower.

  6. I opted for a 5670 passive card for my media system, it was enough for what I needed. this is a good option, but most people will want a silent or very quiet card for media. this isn’t it. good review
