ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870 Crossfire technical specs and benchmarks

ATI started Mobility Radeon HD 5870 Crossfire sales 7 January 2010. This is a Terascale 2 architecture desktop card based on 40 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at gamers. 2x1 GB of DDR3, GDDR3, GDDR5 memory clocked at 1 GHz are supplied.

Its power consumption is at 120 Watt.

It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 23.10 percent of a leader's which is NVIDIA TITAN Xp.

Info on video card type (desktop or notebook), its architecture and sales start time and price.

Quantitative parameters such as shaders number, GPU core clock, manufacturing process, texturing and calculation speed. These parameters indirectly say of video card performance, but to be more precise you have to review it's benchmark and gaming test results.

Information on video card compatibility with other computer components. Useful when choosing a future computer configuration or upgrading an existing one. For desktop video cards it's interface and bus (motherboard compatibility), additional power connectors (power supply compatibility). For notebook video cards it's notebook size, connection slot and bus - if the video card is inserted into the slot instead of being soldered to the notebook motherboard.

Parameters of memory installed on the video card - type, size, bus, clock and resulting bandwidth. GPUs integrated into processors don't have dedicated memory and use a shared part of system RAM.

Technological solutions supported by the GPU. You'll probably need this information if you require some particular technology.

APIs supported by video card, sometimes including their particular versions.

Non-gaming benchmarks performance. Overall benchmark performance is measured in points in 0-100 range.

How good for gaming a particular GPU is. Gaming benchmark results are measured in FPS. Overall gaming performance is a number in 0-100 range, and the older the game, the less impact it has on the overall grade of the video card.
