    @andrewshooter

    Touch the exterior metal case of the PC before handling it to discharge any static electricity on you, try not to work on a carpeted surface. Or wear rubber gloves.

    @tklu84 Nope, the 68series will replace the 57series, the 69series will replace the 59series cards.

  8. sweftboy101 says:

    @smallcake93 but yet it is more comparable to a 5850 and maybe a gtx470 as in all the benchmarks it ties/beats them

  9. smallcake93 says:

    @tklu84 it’s 5% slower like the other duda said, but, if you dont know this card was created to replace de HD5770, not the HD 5870 :’)

    @potsdaman
    Me too, but today I read that the 6970 will not be as powerfull as I thought. The 6970 is on the niveau of a gtx 480….i will get the 6990!!! xD

  14. quakebox says:

    wow what a good review, good work!

  15. quakebox says:

    @ThoseL4Dfreaks Generally the higher the model number the newer the card, and better the card but that doesn’t always garantee better performance, in some cases some old cards has (2x something) which will still be more powerful than some new ones, but you will be making a mistake buying old card when a new one is available with which costs less, and in most cases new cards have higher performance

  16. frenlyguy95 says:

    @VamosMsAris nope.minimum is a 500W psu.based on the specs of this card.

  17. pdani72 says:

  18. pdani72 says:

    @potsdaman BUT if you buy the sapphire edition is 10% faster then 5870

  19. lazyassbum says:

    Can’t wait for the HD6450.

  20. crimson177 says:

    @potsdaman might get 2 of these would you recommend it

  21. andrewshooter says:

    What is the best way to ground yourself so you don’t accidentally zap your card?

  22. Shas221 says:

    @Diebrox You can always wait for the next gen, your cards should last a long time.

  23. VamosMsAris says:

    Can I put this card with a 400W PSU?

  24. sergemankool says:
