Con il comunicato stampa di seguito allegato, AMD ha annunciato la nuova scheda grafica ATI Radeon HD 5450, che va ad arricchire la già ampia gamma di gpu e video card DirectX 11 Ready siglata ATI Radeon HD 5000.

Pur essendo caratterizzata da un MSRP che per le configurazioni reference equipaggiate con 512MB di RAM è inferiore alla soglia dei $60, questa soluzione low-profile può vantare il supporto di tutte le tecnologie innovative esibite dai modelli superiori, come ad esempio quelli della prestigiosa linea ATI Radeon HD 5800.

Oltre al supporto di DirectX 11, la ATI Radeon HD 5450 può vantare anche quello delle tecnologie ATI Eyefinity, che ne esalta l'operatività in modalità "multi-display", e ATI Stream.

La gpu ATI Radeon HD 5450 è una low-power che ha permesso la progettazione di una variante della scheda grafica senza cooler attivo, accanto a quella con cooler attivo di tipo single-slot. Tra i partner di AMD che hanno già a catalogo una ATI Radeon HD 5450 il chip maker ha citato ASUS, ASK, Club 3D, DMM, GBT, HIS, LDLC.com, MSI, Sapphire, TUL, VT e XFX.
