ATI Radeon HD 5830 scheduled for February 5th

The Radeon HD 5830 will arrive a bit more than a week later than anticipated. FUD Zilla writes the launch date has been moved to February 5th, and adds that the card will cost around $239.

The possible price is $239 and even though it doesn’t sound very attractive, it is still much better than $299 pricetag on Radeon HD 5850 cards or $289.99 with the recent USA price drops.
The card will end up with DirectX 11 support and will sit on top of Radeon HD 4770 generation, performance wise. The 5770 sells for $155 for the 1GB version but it will end up significantly slower than 5830.
