The Radeon HD 5830 was a graphics card by ATI, launched on February 25th, 2010. Built on the 40 nm process, and based on the Cypress graphics processor, in its Cypress LE variant, the card supports DirectX 11.2. The Cypress graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 334 mm² and 2,154 million transistors. Unlike the fully unlocked Radeon HD 5870, which uses the same GPU but has all 1600 shaders enabled, ATI has disabled some shading units on the Radeon HD 5830 to reach the product's target shader count. It features 1120 shading units, 56 texture mapping units, and 16 ROPs. ATI has paired 1,024 MB GDDR5 memory with the Radeon HD 5830, which are connected using a 256-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 800 MHz, memory is running at 1000 MHz (4 Gbps effective).
Being a dual-slot card, the ATI Radeon HD 5830 draws power from 2x 6-pin power connectors, with power draw rated at 175 W maximum. Display outputs include: 2x DVI, 1x HDMI 1.3a, 1x DisplayPort 1.1. Radeon HD 5830 is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 interface. The card's dimensions are 280 mm x 111 mm x 37 mm, and it features a dual-slot cooling solution.
