Works Great!
- Pros: I go by what I "see", not measurements. Plays all "my" games (old and new) smoothly at my preferred 1440x900 no AA -- e.g. Crysis with left half game graphics settings at "very high", right half at medium with Win XP DX9 hack. Easy, apparently-stable overclock to approximately 850/1300 using ATI CCC and Riva Tuner to set fan -- but, I run it stock because I cannot "see" the difference. Very quiet. I use it for HDTV (w/ATI 650 card), DVD, and video editing/playback -- excellent image quality, no issues.
- Cons: None.
- Other Thoughts: This card is standard reference 3870 design. Got lucky -- got it when first available at Newegg. Other parts of system are AMD Athlon X2 AM2 6000, 4x1GB RAM, Windows XP Pro. Bought virtually all components at Newegg.
awesome cards
- Pros: dx 10.1 pcie 2.0 price/performance can't be beat
- Cons: only flaw in these cards is the fps hit from aa but at 1600x1200 i don't notice it
- Other Thoughts: got 2 of these in xfire in a 790fx mobo with a phenom 9500 crysis in xp @1600x1200 max settings is no problem
Clocks are correct
- Pros: To the dude below me. There is nothing wrong w/ the clocks in ati CCC. Its part of the powerplay. CCC automaticly underclocks ur cards when not running 3d apps. Once u start gaming ure clocks will be up to normal. The memory is cut in half due to actual speed. DDR = Double data rate. So 1200 memory clock = 2400 effective speed. U catch my drift. Its actually a smart thing to do, there is no need to max core speed on desktop. You will get the speeds the sliders are on when u are using a 3d app. Dont worry bro they are great cards and will treat u right.
- Cons: After CCC automaticly set my clocks to like 845/2600 after like 1 week the display driver keeps recovering in games and still does it at 815/2400. Maybee thats what i get for buying 3rd party hardware. But im sending a RMA in soon for both cards
