This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Fast and reasonably quiet. I find that fan noise is only noticeable above about 60% on my system, and it stays well below this during normal operation (not gaming).
Cons: I've found that I must underclock this card to 700MHz to get it to run stably in Crysis.

My system is well-cooled (system temps are around 40C and CPU temps around 35C at maximum load), but even if I manually set the fan to 100% I get display corruption at full clock speed. This corruption occurs when Catalyst is reporting the card temperature to be about 70-72C maximum at 750MHz. With it underclocked to 700MHz maximum temp is around 65C, and I don't see corruption.

However, I'm finding that 700MHz gives acceptable performance.
Other Thoughts: Fan control and overclocking is easy using AMD's Catalyst control center.

I'm running this with Vista X64 and the 8.10 Catalyst drivers. My system has 4GB RAM, and a Q6600 CPU at stock clock speed.

Most of the reviews I read for this card and other 4870 cards seem to indicate I should not get corruption at 72C, so I wonder if there is a problem with my card. This seems especially possible since others are reporting good overclocking with this card.
Manufacturer Response:This is not good. You should have to underclock the card. Please fill out the return form at http://www.palit.biz/main/rma.php?lang=us and let me replace it for you.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Gpu keeps very cool in a warm room on load @ 59 C. Just like the other reviewr said you can overclock to 800 core clock but can go further as I have mine at 830 and memory 1160 played cysis excellent fan speed 71% gpu stay @ 41 c on idle
Cons: no crossfire bridge but you can email palit to get them free of charge they sent me two after they told me I didnt need two for two cards
Manufacturer Response:Glad you like the card! Not including the bridge saves people money on the card and helps the environment since most people just throw them away.
