This review is from: SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 4870 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card 100259-1GL
Pros:
Editing my prior review... Good card. BUY IT! NOW!
Cons:
Have 2 of these in crossfire. The card on top reached a high temp of 112C running 3dmark06! I about fainted when I saw this and immediately modded my case for two more high power fans. Placed one exhaust fan outside of the case right over the PCI slots, and another just in front of where the heat pipes meet blowing cool air into the cards. This helped incredibly! Now they idle around 40C and have reached a high temp of only 81C!!
Overall Review:
DO NOT try to add fans right after running 3DMark!! This card was HOT and I got a nice little burn on my wrist! ouch!!
