ATI Radeon 5970 is the foot-long GPU champ: HotHardware
We sit down with our buddies from HotHardware, like we do every week, to talk graphic cards this time around. First on the list? ATI's gigantic Radeon 5970, which other than topping performance charts, also tips the price scales more than most cards. On the cheap end of the spectrum, we break down a new card from Zotac which is a low-power unit capable of fitting in well to a home theater without breaking the bank. Also, Adobe has added hardware acceleration support in its latest build of Flash, which is perfect for lower-end computers to play back hi-def Flash content. And, MSI has come out with a desktop that fits that mold really well, which has a touchscreen, Nvidia ION processor, and comes in at about $750. Check the show for the full details.

It's launch day for Snow Leopard... and like we talked about yesterday, the $30 upgrade seems right. What's really worth noting? We bring in Christina Warren from Mashable, and Dave Altavilla from HotHardware to talk specifics. Who should upgrade, who should wait, and how to get the most from the cheapest OS upgrade we've seen in a while.
