Futuremark Tests

Futuremark proves that HD 5670 isn’t a card that will beat Geforce 9800GT but it does outrun Geforce GT240. We split the tables in two parts with convenience in mind – the first part shows faster cards’ results whereas the second part shows results scored by cards priced similarly to the HD5670. 





Sapphire HD 5670 scores well even in Vantage Extreme; more than 2K points is proof enough that the card does pack some nice punch.
