First AMD generation to support DirectX 11. Solid for advanced office tasks, multi-monitor setups, and HD media playback. Tested and verified by our technician!

Works with any PC with a PCIe x16 slot and a minimum 500W power supply with 2x 6-pin connectors. Compatible with Windows 10/11 64-bit — AMD drivers available.
👥 Who is this card for?
Ideal for adding a dedicated video output to a PC without a GPU, connecting 2 to 4 screens simultaneously, for advanced office tasks or light CAD. With its 1440 Stream Processors, it's slightly more powerful than the base HD 5800. Not recommended for modern gaming — see section below.
