HIS HD 5830 iCooler V Turbo Review

Battlefield Bad Company™ 2 brings the spectacular Battlefield gameplay to the forefront of next-gen consoles and PC, featuring best-in-class vehicular combat set across a wide range of huge sandbox maps each with a different tactical focus. New vehicles like the All Terrain Vehicle (ATV) and the UH-60 transport helicopter allow for all-new multiplayer tactics in the warzone. Extensive fine-tuning ensures that this will be the most realistic vehicle combat experience to date. Tactical destruction is taken to new heights with the updated DICE Frostbite engine. Players can now take down entire buildings or create their own vantage points by blasting holes through cover, thereby delivering a unique dynamic experience in every match.

Today we will be testing our cards during Operation Aurora which is the first mission of the Single player campaign. We are testing at 1920×1200 with in game details set to High with 1MSAA, 16AF, v-sync off and HBAO enabled.

The HIS 5830 iCooler V Turbo proved in this game that it is no slouch. We experienced very smooth play through our entire test averaging over 50 FPS. Our review sample was never even close to entering into our FPS Danger Zone and was able to maintain a minimum of 42 FPS which is very good at the settings we used for our testing. This is a good example of how a reasonably priced 5830 offers a good value for your dollar.

  1. They aint bad cards but the 460 has just killed them, as stated on the conclusion. still ive noticed some 5830s selling cheap locally so they might be picked up cheap in the next month, especially with the new range hitting shortly.

  2. My brother has a 5830 and it was a good buy then, it doesnt seem such a good buy now. then again with the 460 pricing, neither really does the 5850.

  3. Saw this in a local store for $50 off recently. might be worth it at that price. full price ? no thanks.

  4. Interesting. I heard one of the v turbo coolers and they are pretty loud. not a great design from HIS sadly. card isnt bad. overpriced.

  5. The 460 has killed the place for the 5830 IMHO but all and all it’s not a bad card

  6. Wow this card looks huge and bulky compared to my gtx 460 which is barely longer than the pcie connector……just looks old.

  7. Can somebody upload the vga bios for this model?
