BIOS

Some of the card's inner workings can be revealed by taking a look at the BIOS. We used GPU-Z to extract the board's BIOS and Radeon BIOS Editor to examine its contents.

ATI Radeon HD 5450:

Clock settings. Boot/3D/UVD setting in red, idle in green.

The 5450 uses clock speeds of 650/900MHz in 3D and when UVD is at work. Its idle clocks run at 157/200Mhz.

ATI Radeon HD 5570:

Clock settings. Boot/3D setting in red, idle in green, UVD in yellow.

The 5570 maintains clock speeds of 650/900MHz in 3D, 400/900MHz when UVD is activated, and 157/200MHz when idle.

Fan settings.

According to the BIOS, the 5570's fan rises slowly, spinning at 30% of maximum until it reaches 45°C. It then increases linearly until the core temperature hits 109°C when the fan speed tops out.
