Today we are looking at another 5000 series card from HIS, the HIS HD5850 iCooler V Turbo. The last HIS card we reviewed was the IceQ 5 5770 and in a similar fashion the HD5850 shares a factory pre-overclock.

This particular product features a center mounted fan to disperse air across the fins of the heatsink to provide a cooler, faster and quieter solution when compared to a reference design 5850. As Sapphire offer the Vapor-X lineup and Power Color have the PCS+ models, the HIS card is up against some stiff competition if it expects the public to part with hard earned cash.
