For those looking for a new slimline graphics solution, this new midrange card from Powercolor might just tick all the right boxes. If space is at a premium then this card offers ‘full fat' gaming performance with 775mhz core speed and up to four cards supported in CrossFireX.
The Powercolor HD6850 Single Slot Edition is a svelte, attractive design and it will undoubtedly find itself installed into many confined enthusiast media centers.

Looks great. I like the fact many media system will suit this, and its more powerful than the usual single slot option
Nice looking card, very slim 😉
The noise figures are helpful, but I want to get two for a new crossfire based media center in a HTPC lian li chassis. will the noise be offputting? its hard to know.
Its a neat idea for a fairly high powered card, but in reality most people shouldnt touch it. they are better off with a dual slot design as they always run cooler and produce less noise. shame they didnt opt for a bigger fan which would spin slower.
Not for me, 6950 is in my plans for the future.
I opted for a 5670 passive card for my media system, it was enough for what I needed. this is a good option, but most people will want a silent or very quiet card for media. this isn’t it. good review
