ASUS EAH3870/G/HTDI/512M Radeon HD 3870 512MB 256-bit GDDR4 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card

Pros: Runs every game I have put in with no problem,swithched from a evga8800 with 320 mb the 3870 is running cool at full load and getting 65c on idle getting 48c

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: Running good, I have this card in a landbox lite by thermaltake with a evga motherboard and 2gig of ram windows xp and 750 power supply,,,and I have a Intel Core 2 Duo...2.53 GHz, 1066 FSB,45nm

Pros: I Bought this card First ! I was Impressed with it,s preformance! Every game was at HIGH settings at 1680x1050, No issues! I haven,t tried OC it ! I,m using this as my slave card in a Crossfire setup I,m using the "top" version which is overcloced from the factory to 851mhz as the primary! Games are getting awesome frame rates! Crysis is by far the best looking game I have and I have most every game!

Cons: VERY BIG CARD! but all GOOD are big! they get hot in a crossfire setup more so then as a single card! I can,t figure that out! I had to add a fan to keep the heat down on them, even on a OPEN CASE! I HATE FANS MORE NOISE I just put it ona switch so I can turn it off when I,m not gameing!

Other Thoughts: I wish I looked to see that they were selling the "top" version,s before I bought this! SO I own 1 of each in a CROSSFIRE set up!

Pros: Great deal on a ddr4 video card. I got 2 of these for a crossfireX setup. pretty quick too. Cant go wrong with this card.

Cons: The drivers disk that come with it is garbage! i had to download the newest drivers online. The basic drivers would even give me any video??? New drivers fixxed that! Only reason i didnt give 5 eggs!

Pros: Seems very stable no issues to date no problems with heat or noise

Cons: VERY did i say VERY big

Other Thoughts: It does fit on a k9a2 platinum

Pros: This card is the knock out punch. Everyone that did not own this card, you have to think about it. It run very cool and give best result in graphic. Check this card out it super great.

Cons: If you install the utilities software of this card that come with the box. Make sure check the fan control after install it, because if you not you will have the heat issue with your card. It not the big problem after you setting the fan speed.

Other Thoughts: My friend own Gforce 9800 GTX+ and the graphic result still can't beat this card. Believe it I saw with my own eyes.

Pros: PRICE 90$ for a 3870! AMAZING DEAL! A little better then my old x1950 pro I have tested a few games I do see a difference in frame rate! MOHA /CRYSIS/ TIME shift the games that NEED a BIG video card!

Cons: BIG FAN! cover,s slot next to it! my x1950 did the same !

NOT the video cards fault just Motherboards are getting smaller and video cards are getting bigger! I scratch my head!

seems like Xfire and SLI boards would give more rome for BIG CARDS!

Other Thoughts: I have seen so many ,saying BIG video cards run CALL OF DUTY 4 AWESOME? well my old x800 runs cod 4! and it is 4 years old!

Pros: Powerful Card. Has better piping than most Nvidia type cards. NOTE I SAID MOST AND NOT ALL!!!

Cons: Kinda big fan for the card but I think necessary.

Other Thoughts: Great card overall. My first one was DOA but the replacement has reached my expectations. Though I'm running Nvidia supported motherboard this card is performing flawlessly. My next step is to pull away from a Nvidia type system and go solely amd/ati.

Pros: This video card is one of the best video cards i've used. I can truly admit, ATI 3870 is the most underrated video card compared to 8800. Whoever talks down on ATI 3870, i really think they smokin on some good stuff because this card itself hold alot of power to max out almost every game I played. From Crysis to Assassin's Creed, everything maxed out and still, i see no choppiness, or lag during gameplay. Good Video card and I hope people will take the chance to check this card out.

Cons: None for right now. People say the fan is annoying, but from my experience it's fine for me. I just hope they do not regret the purchase becuase it's an outstanding card.

Other Thoughts: If you have a micro atx case, be sure to give space for this video card because it is very large. You might have to move your harddrive a few slots down in order for this card to sit in place and for you to have room for other things. But other then that, this card is a steal for it's price.

Pros: Running 2 of them in crossfire, I can do a small overclock with both running in crossfire , 795/1185 mhz

Cons: Can't push both/overclock cards the same. One card will OC just a little better than the other. Running just one will get you a higher OC.

Pros: Good price for HD 3870.
Do not believe their 'coolest fan ever' hype.
Get an aftermarket fan if you plan on having your video card last long.

Cons: Horrible GPU cooler or heatsink. Didn't really have a laser heat meter laying around to test this but...
when running LOTRO in DX10 Ultra high with this card in Xfire it actually went above 81*C and shut my system off.
Replaced with a zalman900 GPU fan and my fans do no go above 55*C OVERCLOCKED to 860/1206 under full load
