AMD today introduced the ATI Radeon HD 5670 graphics card, the latest addition to its line-up of graphics products to fully support Microsoft DirectX 11 gaming and computing, as well as new technologies such as ATI Eyefinity technology. Priced at less than USD $100, the ATI Radeon HD 5670 graphics card enables a HD gaming in the latest DirectX 11 titles, employs ATI Stream technology to boost performance in video playback and productivity applications, and supports Microsoft Windows 7.

The ATI Radeon HD 5670 graphics card delivers up to 620 GigaFLOPS of compute power and GDDR5 memory, delivering high gaming performance for under USD $100 in the latest DirectX 11 titles such as Codemaster's Colin McRae: DiRT 2, EA Phenomic's BattleForge , GSC Game World's S.T.A.L.K.E.R: Call of Pripyat and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 as well as DirectX 9, DirectX 10, DirectX 10.1 and OpenGL titles.



In some of today?s most popular games, the ATI Radeon HD 5670 graphics processor showed a more than 20 percent performance improvement over the closest competing product in its class (Nvidia GeForce GT 240), according to AMD data.

The latest in ATI Eyefinity technology enables up to three displays to be used with a single ATI Radeon HD 5670 graphics card.

ATI Stream technology speeds up video transcoding and improves video playback performance with applications such as Adobe Flash, and helps to deliver video enhancements that produce better visual quality with sharper images.
