AMD outs its latest ATI Radeon HD5450 graphics card, being the most affordable DirectX 11 (and OpenGL 3.2) solution in the market as at press time, retailing for no more than $60 a pop. Despite that highly affordable price point, the ATI Radeon HD 5450 has enough muscle to support similar visual effects as with the 5600 and 5800 lines, although you get lesser stream processors at 80, alongside 8 texture units and a 650MHz engine clock speed. Thanks to the lower clock speed, temperatures won’t rise up that fast, resulting in a low-speed fan that won’t create a din whenever it is in use. Those who use a slightly larger chassis might want to take the fanless route for a change. Other features include Eyefinity support, dual-link DVI, DisplayPort and VGA. [Press Release]
