Sapphire 11180-00-20R HD6850 1GB GDDR5 Graphics Card

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 April 2012

Verified Purchase

This graphics card was priced around £150-00 at other retailers and after a lot of detailed searching and reading reviews I decided this would be the card for my needs. Little was I aware that it needs a minimum power supply for the PC of 500W (600w advisable). The other thing is the sheer size of it. I luckily bought a Dell a few years back specifically so it could be upgraded if required. It only just fitted being very tight to some of the memory boards fitted. I then looked into power supplies and found one for just a few quid. I then fitted all and started it up! The graphics are exceptional for a card of this price and will hopefully now last me for the remaining life of this PC.
If you are looking for a really good graphics card that does not slow down even at the highest revs (and presumably on a budget like myself!) then I would recommend this card. But before buying please do your homework and ensure it will fit into your casing and check the power supply you will need a minimum of 500W as the card needs its own supply! I put a 600W supply in to ensure there was a little extra if necessary.
Overall very very good!!

Fantastic! A very Underrated GPU

I Bought this graphics card not knowing quite what i was buying as i've only recently started getting into hardware (i'm more of a software person). I have to say however that this card is exteremly impressive.

I have an i5 2500k and 8gb of RAM, and their subscores are both 7.5 according to windows, combined with this graphics card, Windows told me this Graphics Card had a subscore of 7.7, according to many people i've asked, that's exteremly good. And from a mid-range graphics card (well, Mid-high range).

I'm Only just getting into this Hardware stuff as I said but this Graphics card is amazing for the price and capablilities of it, for those who need a comparison, I can play BF3 on High Graphics easily with this thing and record it with FRAPS.

In Conclusion, This graphics card is very underrated and is definately worth the purchase for those aiming for this price range, although, I'm not sure you'll be able to find better without spending an extra £100 (just my opinion)

The ONLY problem i had was with the delivery, Amazon didn't tell me there was a £30 delivery from France. So, just a word of warning to those in the UK, you may get charged £30 for deliveries as I belive the company making these operates in France. I don't really mind this but it is a negative.

My son and I have been upgrading his PC repeatedly over the last few years (on the cheap). He is a PC Gamer and we take tips from the largest magazine in that genre published in the UK. They have current recommendations on the best "value for money" upgrade components and the Sapphire 11180-00-20R HD6850 1GB GDDR5 Graphics Card was their recent suggestion when the time came last month. My 15 year old did the whole swap out of the old for new himself; with the ease we all hope for. No software issues with our old bullet proof XP operating system, though it works with all later versions as well. And the grapics? Wow! Keeping in mind the reasonable price (Dad does not allow upgrades that generally exceed $100 per pop) it is astounding. Note on the picture that it does take up the space of two slots at the back of the machine side by side. It only uses one card slot, but there is the potential that it could cover another, blocking that out. We had two slots available for an older PCI technology, so we opted for that kind of connection as there was nothing else to conflict with in those slots. As the online PC games get more detailed and awesome, there was hesitation in the graphics. That is a thing of the past and the games have actually picked up speed and are so much smoother and at the pace they were intended. That was a big surprise to us...we knew there was hesitation, but we did not realize the pace of the game was being compromised. There has not been a single graphics quality or hardware issue in the past month since installation. My son and I say skip the super duper 500 quid graphics cards if you don't have money to burn, but do spend what it takes for this card and get a great return on your investment.

They don't get much better than this - Sapphire 11180-00-20R HD6850 1GB GDDR5 Graphics Card

I'm running two monitors straight of this, and everything is now instantaneous. I treated myself to a new graphics card because I was starting a project to compile a video for my daughters 21st birthday. My previous card had 1GB of memory etc but displaying the mass of images we've compiled over the years was a real jittering process. I installed this in minutes, updated the drivers using the CD and was up and running within 20-mins.
Now, displaying exactly the same images is instantaneous - the machine is like new.
I'm running Windows 7 64-bit on an Intel i5 with 16GB RAM.
Also Windows experience jumped up to 7.7!
I'm a very happy man, worth every penny :-)
On the negative:
One thing to watch out for, you cannot run two VGA monitors off this card, it has one DVI-A and one DVI-D connection - so check out your monitors before buying.
Also the box is distasteful and unnecessary - why does the female cartoon character need to be displayed in an evocative oversized underdressed manner?

Works wel and good price

The card arrived on time as is usual for amazon. The card was for a new i7 build and was easy to install in the motherboard. The card provides a solid stable image on Dvi and hdmi. I havn't tried any gaming so can't comment on its behaviour under load but it has been stable and done everything asked of it now at a very good price.

The only negative is that in my case I have a clear window and can see the back of the pub which is not so attractive

Great deal

The card seems absolutely fine, makes a big difference to performance. And it comes with a free code for DiRT 3 (mine did anyway) - but that needs to be redeemed by May 31st 2012, even though the voucher itself says it needed to be redeemed by Dec 31st 2011. So to get this card and that game for £91 (that's what I paid) was a great deal! If you're looking for a midrange card to game at 1920 x 1080 in Dx 11, this is your man.

Mit dieser Karte wollte ich eine GeForce 9800GT ersetzen, die mich durch ihr Spulenfiepen in den Wahnsinn getrieben hat. Bei der Radeon ist dieses bei hohen Frames (nicht im Leerlauf oder Video schauen) zwar ebenfalls vorhanden, jedoch viel leiser und nicht störend. Damit hat sich die Anschaffung bereits gelohnt.

Die Karte hat einen zusätzlichen Stromanschluss für einen 6-Pin Stecker. Hier komme ich bereits zu meinem ersten Kritikpunkt: Die Steckerbuchse ist nicht wie üblich an der kurzen Seite der Grafikkarte angebracht, sondern an der langen Seite, die zur Gehäusetür zeigt. Somit muss das Kabel vom Netzteil quer durch den Computer gezogen werden, verstecken kann man das Kabel dann nicht mehr. Der Sinn des Ganzen leuchtet mir nicht wirklich ein. (Übrigens scheint der Anschluss der Karte mal hier, mal dort zu sein. Sucht man Bilder in Google, wird man das schnell feststellen.)

Zur Lautstärke: Im Leerlauf dreht der Lüfter mit 1000rpm, die Karte wird 38° warm.
Ein normaler Benutzer wird die Karte hier nicht hören, in einem Silent-PC fällt weniger der Luftstrom als vielmehr die Lagergeräusche des Lüfters auf.
Unter Furmark (ein Programm, dass die Karte zu 100% auslastet), erreicht sie 75° bei 2500rpm. Jetzt ist sie deutlich zu hören.

Mein System zieht bei voller Auslastung der Grafikkarte und des Prozessors (Intel i3) gerade einmal 200W. Abhängig von der restlichen Systemkonfiguration und dem Wirkungsgrad des Netzteils sollte ein 350W Netzteil für diese Karte absolut ausreichend sein.

Was ich nicht wusste: Dem Paket liegt ein (abgelaufener) Gutschein für DIRT3 bei. Ich konnte diesen trotzdem noch einlösen. Man ist jetzt allerdings an Steam gebunden und muss sich auch noch bei Windows Live anmelden, um die Spielstände abzusichern. Viel komplizierter geht es nicht mehr...

Zur Leistung der Karte ist bereits alles gesagt. Ich kann sie insgesamt nur weiterempfehlen.
Ein Stern Abzug wegen der Position der Strombuchse.
