PowerColor Radeon HD 5970 (Hemlock) 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card AX5970 2GBD5-MD
PowerColor Radeon HD 5970 (Hemlock) 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card AX5970 2GBD5-MD

Pros: Very fast video card even when i am playing empire total war it is very cool at about 46c maybe also it help to have the cool master ATCS 810 full tower case.Graphics are amazing very detail does not overheat like some other 5970 graphic cards i am overclocked cpu from 2.6 i7 to 3.8 ghz Also ran 3d mark vantage graphic score was 24580 which i guess is not bad for this baby.

Cons: The only probelm i encounter is like everyone that connects this card to a tv lcd and your monitor is that you will get glitches if your running these at the same time when you try to overclock this card. You either have to disconnect your lcd tv so you can overclock this bad boy. I hope there will be a fix in the future for this problem.

Overall Review: Best graphic card to date get one if you can it took me 2 months to get this one good luck!

XFX HD-585A-ZNDC Radeon HD 5850 (Cypress Pro) XXX Edition 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card

Pros: So far so good with this card i overclocked a bit at 800 mhz core clock and memory clock 1200mhz only 38c using my atcs 840 case which should help cooling this bad boy.I would only sell this if i get my hands on a 5970 but the way things look 5850 xfx is reasonable for price and the performance you can get. Good luck trying to get one of these it took me a while by checking newegg everyday.

Cons: Fan comes on sometimes during bootup but goes off after a short while.

Overall Review: Should have bought one more to keep or sell
