Most Favorable Review

great card so far

HIS Radeon HD 4670 1GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card H467QS1GH
HIS Radeon HD 4670 1GB DDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card H467QS1GH

Pros: love the card, have amped up my graphics settings on all my games and it has performed great! shipping was great too shipped on the 22nd and arrived the 25th! also it is a beautiful card (love the blue and white) seems to stay cool during gameplay

Cons: none so far should have spent the 25 bucks more for the XFX 4770, only because it would go better with my red and black Thermaltake Element S case!

Overall Review: i will review this card later, after i have worked on it some more and have more constructive feedback.

Pros: small, discrete, and simple hardware setup

Cons: would have been nice to have a significantly better setup manual. also it slows down my internet speeds greatly (especially downloads). regularly i get 20megs and with the router plugged in, it's significantly reduced.

Pros: awesome cpu, especially for the price, and going along with what most people have posted; the fact that you can turn an already stellar cpu into a quad... 5+ eggs

Cons: none

Overall Review: with the help of my ASUS M4A87TD EVO AM3 motherboard and the simple flick of a switch.... i now have a quad core processor! thanks amd i will never go to the dark/mainstream side!

Pros: works as advertised! good speed, no hitches...wonderful! SEE Other thoughts

Cons: nada tostada

Overall Review: just make sure you adjust the timings and voltage in your bios because the STANDARD is 1333 so you'll have to do a little tweaking, but if you know what you're doing it will take 5 seconds!
