This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: had solid fps, wish it would have lasted
Cons: I will never be purchasing from Sapphire again, I got this card and it lasted a good month and a half and It had a solid fps on most games and was flawless, then came the problems. I started to get all of these graphical errors and skips that I should absolutely not be getting on a computer with my specs with this card. My fps dropped to a low 50-60 in almost all games and the card just keeps declining. I talked to sapphire to try and get an RMA and they responded quickly but besides that the process is awful. They expect me to mail my only graphics card that I have across the country for 2-4 weeks, and make me pay for the shipping for their dud card. Not going to happen.
Other Thoughts: really wish that this card didn't die out, I was very satisfied at first, but it had to die =/.
it seems I am also not even close to the only one experiencing problems with this card

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: it worked well at one point?
Cons: Will never be buying from sapphire again, the card came and worked for about a month, and then it just took a dive and my fps is extremely low on all games and I get all this lag (games will skip frames and freeze and etc and I'm sure it is not a latency issue as well trust me, happens in offline games)
then sapphire expects me to pay for shipping for an RMA all the way across the country and wait up to 4 weeks for a new card since they gave me dud when I have a single computer with no other graphics cards around
Other Thoughts: I don't seem to be the only one that has had trouble with this card

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great price for performance. Great review at THG for 4850 series.
Cons: Screen image died while in use. Lasted a little over a month (BIOS error, AMI 1 long, 3 short on old ASUS M2V). Replaced RAM and tried different slots...still error. Put in old 3870 and back in business.
Other Thoughts: Can't return to newegg (over 30-days). Now, to see how Sapphire RMA process flows :-(
