It's a blast from the not so distant past here at Neo today with our review of the Sapphire Radeon HD 5850 and HD 5830 Xtreme graphics cards. What's so Xtreme about cards that still use the reference specifications of the older mid-range Cypress GPUs models? Sapphire throws in custom PCB and thermal designs, not to mention Eyefinity and ATI Steam processing, to improve performance and pack more value into these Cypress-based cards. We put the Xtreme cards to the test to see just how well they compete against the likes of the Radeon HD 6790 and Nvidia GeForce GTX 550 Ti in the DX11 sub-$150 graphics card market.
