This review is from: GIGABYTE Radeon HD 4870 X2 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card GV-R487X2-2GH-B
Pros:
FAST. REALLY REALLY FAST.
Cons:
You could cook dinner on this thing (and heat your room at the same time). So big it interferes with two of my MOBO SATA port plugs rendering them un-usable.
Driver software still needs refinements to fully realize the power of this card.
Need to use a modified profile to adjust the fan speed to get the temps down to a reasonable level.
Overall Review:
Still shaking this card out on my new rig. Hopefully the drivers get better. And Vista Ultimate keeps wanting to install a driver for the PCI to PCI Bridge on the card - and of course it can't find one.
