ATI’s range of Evergreen cards have been bossing the GPU market ever since their initial release last October, and while not every card has been a revelation in performance when compared to previous generation GPUs, much improved energy efficiency and DirectX 11 support have seen demand continually outstrip supply.
As time’s gone on, the range has predictably expanded from the launch cards, from the dual-GPU Radeon HD 5970 down to the passively cooled, HTPC centric Radeon HD 5450. The HD 5830 is the latest card from the current crop, arriving at a price point between the faster Radeon HD 5850 and the more mid-range Radeon HD 5770.
There’s no reference card design for the Radon HD 5830, so everyone’s got a different design. From left to right: XFX, Sapphire, Asus, MSI, HIS. Click to enlarge
The HD 5850 is somewhat unique though in the fact that there will be no ‘reference’ or stock design for the card, with ATI selling the GPUs to board partners who then add their own power delivery circuitry, cooling and PCBs for their own individual take on the HD 5830. Our review sample is simply an HD 5830 GPU and accompanying memory fitted to an HD 5870 reference card, and, as you can see above, there’s a lot of variety between different partner cards.
This somewhat odd approach is because the Cypress GPUs in question (dubbed Cypress LE) are those that didn’t quite make the cut to become HD 5870s, HD 5850s or HD 5970s, but which still have sufficient functional parts to churn out a few million pixels per second
This means the HD 5830 offers a shader count of 1,120 (with 56 texture units) in comparison to the HD 5850’s 1,440 (with 72 texture units) and the HD 5870’s 1,600 (with 80 texture units). The limitations go a fair bit further than just the stream processor count, too. The number of ROPs has been cut to just 16, in line with the HD 5700-series, but half that of the HD 5800-series; the HD 5830 does retain the 256-bit memory bus of the its bigger brothers though, allowing the HD 5830 to match the memory bandwidth of a HD 5850 at 128GB/sec. The clock speeds of the HD 5830 are also something of a mish-mash between those of the HD 5770 and HD 5850 either, with a GPU clock of 800MHz (75MHz more than the HD 5850 and 50MHz less than the HD 5770), and a memory clock of 1GHz (4GHz effective).
The card ATI sent us to test with was based on an old HD 5870 board, and it looks identical. If you look at the cards above, most seem to take the same route, apart from the tiny XFX.Click to enlarge
The result is a card that, on paper at least, sits almost exactly in between the HD 5770 and HD 5850 when it comes to performance, although in some aspects like pixel fill rate, it’s actually a little behind the HD 5770. Interestingly though, as the HD 5830 is based on a higher clocked version of the Cypress GPU than the HD 5850, peak power consumption is actually second only to the HD 5870 at 175W.
While the idea of a card to fill the performance gap between the HD 5850 and HD 5770 is a sound one, there’s a slight concern based on our experience with the Radeon HD 4830. This card filled a similar gap in the HD 4000-series range with a great degree of success — hitting an attractive price-performance sweet-spot. However, cards based on the HD 4830 GPU dried up fairly quickly, likely due to improved manufacturing processes and higher yields of HD 4850- and HD 4870-class chips. Whether this will be the case with the HD 5830 remains to be seen, but the GPU tag of “Cypress LE” doesn’t bode too well – limited edition anyone?
The final note before heading into the test results is the price of this new card — we’d expected a price of around £160-180 inc VAT, so the £200+ prices are a surprise. However, it seems that ATI has hiked the price of the HD 5850 up to accommodate the HD 5830 at this price. Radeon HD 5850 cards now cost around £250 (inc VAT) which is a significant leap up from the £215 (inc VAT) price we saw in our last Buyer’s Guide.

AMD ATI Radeon HD 5830 Review
Verdict
Key Specifications
- Review Price: £189.99
Ever since they launched back in October of last year, ATI’s 5xx0 series of cards (codename Evergreen) have been dominating the graphics market. Their combination of class-leading performance, features, and power consumption along with support for DirectX 11 has meant they were the clear choice for anyone looking to buy a new card in the last six months. Now there’s a new addition to the roster, the mid-range HD 5830.
Based on the same RV870 chip (Codenamed Cypress) that sits at the heart of the HD 5870 and HD 5850, the HD 5830 uses those chips that haven’t quite met the strict manufacturing demands of these high-end cards. By shutting down malfunctioning portions of the chip, you still get a working card but with reduced performance. This is the same approach as used on the HD 5850 cards, though more of the chip is disused is this new card.
(centre)”’Diagram of the RV780 chip. Lightened sections represent those parts that have been shutdown for the HD 5830.”’(/centre)
In particular, the HD 5870 has 1,600 stream processors and 80 texturing units (collectively split up into 20 SIMD blocks) accompanied by 32 ROPs. For the HD 5850, as well as having lower clock speeds, one of the SIMD blocks is disabled resulting in 1,440 stream processors, 72 texture units, and 32 ROPs. As for the HD 5830, it has six of the SIMD blocks disabled and half the number of ROPs, though it does retain the 256-bit memory interface as the other cards. In contrast, the HD 5770 uses a completely different chip and has 800 stream processor, 40 texture units, 16 ROPs, and a 128-bit memory interface. The upshot is we expect the HD 5830 to have performance that sits somewhere between the HD 5770 and HD 5850.
Conversely, the card we received for review looks nothing like one that should sit somewhere between the HD 5850 and HD 5770. Instead it’s a reference (i.e. made by ATI itself) HD 5870 board with a 5830 chip stuck on it and as such it’s long (284mm/11.2in) and heavy (975g).
However, fear not because board partners have been given carte blanche to design their own boards and cooling solutions so are producing much shorter and lighter variants for final retail – though some are still using the same long board so watch out for those. As such, while this card’s cooler proved impressive in our sound level tests, it isn’t necessarily going to be a reflection of what you get from a shop bought card.
Something else that might change from card to card is the display configuration, though we suspect most will stick with the standard layout. When ATI introduced the first 5xx0 series card, the HD 5870, it also debuted its new Eyefinitiy technology, which let’s you run up to three monitors simultaneously (and even six on some special cards). To accompany this they also introduced a standard choice of four display connections; two DVI, one HDMI, and a DisplayPort. Any combination of the DisplayPort and two of the other connections lets you run up to three 1,920 x 1,200 pixel resolution monitors for surround 3D gaming. All four connections also allow output of digital audio.
To boost the performance of this card, ATI has specified the chip should run at 800MHz or over, which is actually higher than the 5850. The result is it has quite high power consumption figures with stated idle power consumption of 25W and a maximum Thermal Design Power (TDP) of 175W. This compares to respective figures of 27W and 151W for the HD 5850 and 18W and 108W for the HD 5770. It also means the card requires two auxiliary PCI-E power connectors to keep it supplied with enough juice. However, these power figures didn’t quite hold up in our testing. While the HD 5830 certainly consumed quite a bit more power than the HD 5770, it remained comfortably below the HD 5850.
Looking then at game performance, except for Call Of Duty 4, the HD 5830 performs pretty much as we’d expect – it lies almost exactly half way between the HD 5770 and HD 5850, with a slight leaning towards the former. However, in Call Of Duty 4, it really seems to struggle and at some settings only just pips the HD 5770. Perhaps of more concern is that the HD 5830 consistently falls behind the HD 4890, which was available for around the same price when it came out almost exactly a year ago. So, if you invested in that card, all you’re getting for spending around the same money again is support for DirectX 11 games and lower power consumption, and frankly neither of these are big enough draws to make it worthwhile.
This doesn’t make the HD 5830 a bad card. If you’re looking for an upgrade from an even older card or want to make the step up from an entry-level £100 card to something with a bit more grunt then it’s definitely worth looking at. The key thing to note is that prices and specs will vary. In particular, looking around etailers now, there only seem to be three cards on offer; one each from Sapphire, Powercolor, and XFX. The Sapphire and Powercolor cards seem to use the long HD 5870 board with a different cooler and they’re both well over £200 and as such are probably worth skipping. The XFX card, however, uses a small board and cost £189.99. At this price, it’s definitely worth considering.
”’Verdict”’
ATI’s latest addition to its graphics card lineup doesn’t set any new records but does strike a good balance between price and performance, and of course brings support for the latest DirectX 11 games and triple monitor setups. Just make sure to check carefully which card you’re actually getting, as different board partners will have different configurations.

There are a lot of graphics cards from AMD in and surrounding the new Radeon HD 5830’s price point, so let’s have a look at the relevant players:
Radeon HD 5850 | Radeon HD 5830 | Radeon HD 5770 | Radeon HD 4890 | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Shader Processors: | 1,440 | 1,120 | 800 | 800 |
Texture Units: | 72 | 56 | 40 | 40 |
Color ROPs: | 32 | 16 | 16 | 16 |
Core Clock: | 725 MHz | 800 MHz | 850 MHz | 850 MHz |
GDDR5 Memory Clock: | 1,000 MHz | 1,000 MHz | 1,200 MHz | 975 MHz |
Memory Bus: | 256-bit | 256-bit | 128-bit | 256-bit |
Memory Bandwidth (GB/s): | 128 | 128 | 76. 8 | 124.8 |
Compute Power (TFLOPs): | 2.09 | 1.79 | 1.36 | 1.6 |
Transistors (billion): | 2.15 | 2.15 | 1.04 | 0.959 |
Maximum Power: | 151W | 175W | 108W | 190W |
Idle Power: | 27W | 25W | 18W | 60W |
There’s so much information to process here. At first glance, the new Radeon HD 5830 seems to completely outclass the Radeon HD 5770 with far higher memory bandwidth and almost a third more shader cores. Indeed, the new card looks comparable to the powerful Radeon HD 5850. Yes, there’s a 22% reduction in shader cores, but there’s also a 10% increase in GPU core clock speed to help offset the deficit.
Things look exceptionally positive for the new Radeon HD 5830 until you notice its Achilles heel: a lack of ROPs compared to the Radeon HD 5850. And we thought we were so very close to having Radeon HD 5850-class performance at $240! Of course, this is precisely the reason AMD cut the number of render back-ends in half compared to the Radeon HD 5870 and 5850. To put things in perspective, the Radeon HD 5830 might be able to execute shader operations almost as fast as the 5850, but its ability to render pixels to the screen has been crippled to the same specification as the Radeon HD 5770. We can expect the new Radeon HD 5830 to perform between the Radeons HD 5770 and 5850, but probably closer to the 5770 or Radeon HD 4890.
Speaking of the 4890, the Radeon HD 5830 looks to outclass it on all fronts, except the ROP count. Remember though, the Radeon HD 4000-series have been repeatedly proven to demonstrate a sizable shader-versus-shader performance advantage over the Radeon HD 5000-series when it comes to raw game performance. As a result, we’d expect the new card to demonstrate performance comparable to the Radeon HD 4890.
A Familiar Graphics Processor
The Radeon HD 5830 does not sport a new GPU, it simply employs the Radeon HD 5870 «Cypress» processor, crippled to the new specification and dubbed Cypress LE. In fact, AMD’s power usage specifications suggest that the Radeon HD 5830 will be based on the high-end Radeon HD 5870 card instead of the smaller 5850. And our reference card was built on a full-sized Radeon HD 5870 PCB, though we’ll go into that in more depth on the next page. For now, here is a Radeon HD 5870 block diagram that shows how much of the GPU has been disabled.
We’ve been through the Radeon HD 5000-series architecture in detail in our Radeon HD 5870 launch article so I won’t rehash the minutia. We will look at the differences in the new Radeon HD 5830 though: as you can see, the new Radeon HD 5830 has 14 SIMD engines, compared to the 5870’s 20, but only half of the render back-ends. We can definitely see where the performance bottleneck will lie. Each of the 14 SIMD engines hosts four texture units and 16 stream processors, and each stream processor with five ALUs (AMD calls these stream cores). As a result, this GPU boasts 1,120 stream cores and 56 texture units.
Note that the GPU retains its four 64-bit memory controllers, even though the number of render back-ends has been halved from four to two. Each render back-end contains eight color ROP units, resulting in a total of 16 ROPs and a 256-bit memory interface.
As with the rest of the Radeon HD 5000 family, AMD dedicated a lot of its transistor budget to features like DirectX 11 and Eyefinity. Of course, all of these features carry over to the Radeon HD 5830. With the aforementioned launches this month, we’ve covered them ad infinitum, so to read more about these features please check the other Radeon HD 5000-series stories linked to at the end of this piece.

So, the Radeon HD 5830 video card is nothing more than a somewhat stripped-down version of the Radeon HD 5870. The heart of the HD 5830 is the same AMD Cypress GPU. In addition to lower clock speeds, the new chip received fewer ROPs and stream processors, as well as only 56 texture processors out of 80 possible. All these modifications significantly reduced the theoretical computing power of the Radeon HD 5830, which turned out to be about 1.5 times lower than that of the Radeon HD 5870. Nevertheless, the manufacturer positions the new product as a high-performance solution for enthusiasts. The recommended retail price of the novelty is $230, and let’s hope that when video cards arrive in Russian retail, prices will not change much upwards.
Already today, on the day of the official announcement, it became known that AMD partners are preparing to release their own solutions based on the Radeon HD 5830, and, judging by the photos received, the new video cards differ not only in the sticker on the cooling system. As an example, here are photos of solutions produced by XFX, HIS and PowerColor:
A reference sample of the Radeon HD 5830 got into our test lab, let’s take a closer look at the new product.
Externally, the AMD Radeon HD 5830 video accelerator is not much different from its older counterparts. The design of the cooling system has not changed. Since the board came to us in an OEM configuration, no accessories were included with it, but retail copies will most likely be properly equipped.
AMD Radeon HD 5870
Let’s compare the design of the PCB of the Radeon HD 5830, HD 5850 and HD 5870. Interestingly, the layout of the Radeon HD 5830 that came into our hands is identical to that of the Radeon HD 5870, and not the HD 5850, as expected.
I must say that when disassembling the cooling system, difficulties arose. The fact is that the plate installed on the reverse side of the CO was screwed so tightly that it was not possible to unscrew the small screws with a conventional watch screwdriver. However, there is no great need for this, since it is obvious that the test copy of the Radeon HD 5830 uses exactly the same PCB design and cooling system as the Radeon HD 5870. Of course, the PCB length, which is 26.8 cm, remains unchanged. , and if you take into account the dimensions of the cooler, then all 28 cm.
It would be more interesting to see what AMD partners will prepare as a cooling system for the Radeon HD 5830, but we will return to this issue when these video cards are at our disposal.
The video memory installed on the Radeon HD 5830 is made by Samsung. Judging by the chip markings (K4G10325FE-HC04), the access time is 0.4 ns, and the nominal clock frequency is 5 GHz QDR.
Well, let’s move on to practical tests. First of all, let’s take temperature measurements in three operating modes — office, gaming and at maximum load. Testing was carried out on an open bench with the following configuration:
CPU | Intel Core i7 920 D0 @ 4000 MHz (200×20) |
Cooling system | Glacialtech F101 |
Motherboard | ASUS P6T Deluxe Palm OS Edition |
Video cards | AMD Radeon HD 5870 AMD Radeon HD 5850 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 295 NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 |
RAM | DDR3 Apacer 3×1 GB @ 1600 MHz @ 8-8-8-24 |
Power supply | IKONIK Vulcan 1200W |
Hard disk | Samsung 750 GB |
Housing | Cooler Master Test bench 1. 0 |
Operating system | Windows Vista Home Basic x64 SP1 |
Video driver version | Catalyst 9.12 for Radeon HD 5870, 5850 and 5970 ATI_Cypress_LE_8.703_RC2_Vista_Win7_Feb11 for Radeon HD 5830 ForceWare 192.62 for NVIDIA |
In office mode and at maximum load, the temperatures of the Radeon HD 5870 and Radeon HD 5830 GPUs actually coincided. The game mode shows a slight advantage for the Radeon HD 5830. At the same time, the Radeon HD 5830 turned out to be hotter than its older brother, the Radeon HD 5850, which is apparently due to its higher clock speed.
Acceleration
Since at the moment we have not been able to find a utility capable of overclocking the AMD Radeon HD 5830 to the maximum possible frequencies, we had to use the standard functions of AMD drivers. As you know, the maximum frequency ceiling available for setting through the ATI OverDrive section often significantly limits the user in experiments. That is what happened this time as well. The maximum possible frequencies for setting were 875/1200 (4800 QDR) MHz for the GPU and video memory, respectively. After setting these values, the card easily passed all the tests, moreover, even the FurMark stress test «spun» without problems.
Capacity
As part of the AMD Radeon HD 58xx line, the new HD 5830 stays where it should be, namely, right behind the Radeon HD 5850. Overclocking allows the Radeon HD 5830 to come pretty close to the results of the HD 5850, but no more. As for the confrontation with the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285, in heavy graphics modes, the brainchild of NVIDIA looks somewhat better than the non-overclocked Radeon HD 5830, and slightly worse than the overclocked one.
In the FarCry 2 game, the results shown by the Radeon HD 5830 do not affect the alignment of forces within the AMD family in any way. The HD 5830 still lags behind the Radeon HD 5850 even after overclocking. Our hero is capable of competing with the GeForce GTX 285 only at higher frequencies, and even then not always successfully.
In Crysis, the battle between the Radeon HD 5830 and the GeForce GTX 285 ends in victory for the Reds. The Radeon HD 5830 outperforms the «green» rival without difficulty, even when running at nominal core and memory frequencies. Working at higher frequencies, the Radeon HD 5830 almost reached the nearest rival in the face of the Radeon HD 5850, but the latter still had a slight advantage.
Resident Evil 5 runs great on the Radeon HD 5830 even without overclocking and at maximum graphics quality settings. However, if you look at the absolute performance values, then the Radeon HD 5830 loses to the GeForce GTX 285, and even overclocking the new product is not able to change the balance of power.
As in the case of Resident Evil 5, in the game World in Conflict, the speed advantage is on the side of the «greens». The NVIDIA GeForce GTX 285 easily outperforms both the non-overclocked and overclocked Radeon HD 5830 graphics cards, and only the Radeon HD 5850 and Radeon HD 5870 can compete with it in this game.
The game Need For Speed Shift responds well to the increase in the clock frequencies of the Radeon HD 5830. Perhaps, this is the only game in which the new product from AMD, after increasing the operating frequencies, managed not only to bypass the top single-chip solution of the competitor, but also to catch up with the older brother Radeon HD 5870 at a resolution of 1920×1200!
Terminals
The rich functionality of modern AMD solutions, of course, significantly distinguishes them from the competitor’s products. This statement is also true for the Radeon HD 5830, which fully supports all the features of the HD 58xx series. In most modern applications, the Radeon HD 5830 will show a comfortable frame rate, although this is not always enough to confidently compete with NVIDIA’s single-chip flagship. In this case, the answer to the question — «what to choose?», will depend, first of all, on the price and operating frequencies of the Radeon HD 5830, which AMD partners will install for their products.
