Best 4890 out there

Pros: Great card. For those wondering what the difference is between the 3 xfx 4890s, this is the 900mhz one with the black PCB & rear red dvi connections. Aside from possibly the 4870x2's, this is the best ati card out there. Warranty is great also. From what I hear, the customer service is good. You can see they care enought to check out the customer feedback on this site & reply to any issues, unlike sapphire. xfx company is also modder-friendly. Newegg shipped super fast as usual, thx! Comes with the HAWK game, which is actually kind of cool.
Cons: no issues found
Overall Review: I water cooled this puppy 1 day after getting it. Stock idle temps are 140-F. Used the EK-FC4890 water block, which fit perfectly on this card. Temps dropped 40 degrees, down to 100-F. If you dont go water, the fan isnt all that bad. I previously had a powercolor x1900xt and the fan on that was alot louder than the fan on this one. I'm also running Windows 7 64-bit with out any issue. Not sure why ppl are giving bad marks for the 8 pin connection.. upgrade your power supply if you cant hang.. I use a corsair 850 & it runs this card without prob.
no

Pros: free
Cons: lame
Overall Review: could be a good game for an emo

Pros: work horse! nice clean power. 4 6+2 pci express connections is a great thing to have for the high end video cards & for future expansion. comes with a corsair case badge. nice quality packing.
Cons: wish it were modular so didnt have to tuck away the unused cables.
Overall Review: this powers my high-end, water cooled system without issue.

Pros: works great & looks great. comes with a g-skill case badge.
Cons: none
Overall Review: only cool guys buy this ram, some of the best ddr2 ram out there.

Pros: good stuff. as some others have said, its a bit smaller than expected. even so, i have been able to use it on 4 or 5 cpu's so far and i still have a bit left.
Cons: picture should have a reference image so you understand how big it is. I know it says 3.5 grams, or 1cc, but some of us may not fully comprehend what that equates to.. :P
Overall Review: I've seen some newbs use thier finger to spread this stuff. Thats not the right way. Use a small plastic card, maybe like a credit card, to spread the stuff. Thin layer, not thick! its only supposed to be there to fill in the small imperfections, etc.

Pros: nice flow & quiet. I use a couple of these on my water cooling system, cools my radiator just fine. wiring is 3 pin and it comes with a 3pin to 4pin molex adapter, if needed. fans look good on my black & red case setup.
Cons: no issues
Overall Review: pros get fans like this. high quality, quiet & high flow is the best way to go.
