This review is from: ASUS Radeon HD 3870 X2 1GB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card EAH3870X2/G/3DHTI/1G
Pros:
I have installed this card in 2 computers for clients, both worked flawlessly after understanding the real problem.
Cons:
There isnt really any
Overall Review:
bluemoonffl says that this card causes the computer to restart, for a "high" tech level I think you need to start readin up. Your computer is restarting because the 12v rails on your powersupply cannot keep up with the demand of the card. Try unpluggin HD's and DVDrw's to free up some power and the issue will go away. It doesnt matter if you have a 8000watt power supply, if the current on the 12v rails is not high enough your computer will restart - its a fail safe. So before you discredit the card, do your research and fix the real problem. This card has 2 GPUs, 2 fans, 2 of everything, it needs alot of power. I wish newegg users would submit with the REAL tech level. Everyone here is an expert, and that just causes confusion for so many that are not. For the inexperienced that are shopping here - I am sorry on behalf of all the "high" tech's that dont really know.
