 MSI R5670 Cyclone 1G review

MSI R5670 Cyclone 1G

Here at Guru3D we have a sharp eye on the latest and greatest from the hardware industry, often the focus is on high-end components. Every now and then though we receive a product that is to be found in the budget segment, the sub 100 EUR/USD area. These products often offer a lot of value for money, and always... seriously you'll always be able to tweak the living daylights out of them.

Today as such we wanted to re-examine the Radeon HD 5670, a sub 100 USD graphics card that certainly is not a card with a lot of muscle, but for low-level and not too demanding gaming, it can suffice. MSI decided to redesign the board a little bit, slapped a Cyclone cooler on the GPU, ditched their high-end 'military class' components on it, equipped it with some faster memory and bam... you've got yourself a product that can be tweaked into the stratosphere.

I'm not joking here, this card comes at a default clock of 775 MHz, yet we were able to push it fairly easy over 1 GHz, and that certainly does help out with a somewhat limited product.

Too good to be true, or real value? Well, let's find out in a review on the MSI R5670 Cyclone 1G, oh yeah... they slapped 1 GB of graphics memory on there. Have a peek and then let's head onward into the review.
