HIS Radeon HD 4830 DirectX 10.1 H483FN512P 512MB 256-Bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card

Pros: Make sure you get a program called GPU-Z - it is free. Check the # of Stream Processing units your card shows in GPU-Z. It should be 640, but some only come up with 560 like mine did. This means is was accidentally gimped by the bios. It is fixable by flashing the bios and is very easy. I did it and I now have a fully functional card. This WILL affect you performance so check it out.

Cons: This is just an update - I have reveiwed the card already.

Overall Review: I have noticed a few extra frames in Crysis by doing this. Not a huge change, but helpful.

Pros: I got this as a slave card for CrossfireX with my other HD 4830(ASUS EAH4830 512m to be exact) and this card blew me away. Not only was the single card performance at 1920x1080 great but two is just plain awesome. The cooler on this card works GREAT. It cools better than my ASUS card and is dead silent.

Cons: Doesn't OC quite as high as my ASUS card but it's still a good enough clocker to run a single card setup with. No Crossfire bridge was murder.. Had to buy a few off of friends. My motherboard came with a bridge but it was kind of long.

Overall Review: AMD Athlon X2 7750(Kuma, Phenom X2 essentially) @ 3.2ghz, 4gb Corsair XMS2 800mhz, MSI DKA790GX Platinum, HD 4830 Crossfire, FSP Mod-Power 700w Modular, Raidmax Katana Case.

Pros: Inexpensive and will run most games at high settings under 1680x1050 resolution.

Cons: You don't get the card that is pictured. Actual card is shorter and has different (cheaper) power components. Didn't come with CrossFire Bridge.

Overall Review: A little dissapointed I didn't get what was pictured since I know the difference between different mosfets and chokes on a PCB, this card really cheaps out. Overall performance is good.

Pros: the 4830 series gives the highest performance per dollar right now. Comparible in performance to a 9800 gt (rebadged 8800 gt) but significantly cheaper. grab one before they quit making them. actually, grab 2.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: 2 of these in crossfire smoke a 1GB 4870 and GTX 260. Even gives the 4870 X2 a run at any resolution. Check the prices, that is amazing.

Pros: Fan is quite, big overclocker (at least for me), seems to run pretty cool temp wise. Plays Modern Warfare-2 with all the eye candy just about maxed at 1920X1080, and plenty of my other games. Using this card with a e7400 I managed to get to 4000GHz and a 1600fsb all on air. Awesome gaming box at a reasonable cost. Using it with Windows 7 and not one problem or conflict.

Cons: None at all

Overall Review: Two of these CrossFire'd at this pricing would be pretty cool I think. Especially with how much you could overclock the primary one if your an overclocker.

Pros: I dropped this into my game rig as a stop-gap until I can upgrade to a 5xxx grade card, so I could pull the SLI'd 7800GT's out for upgrading some other family computers. Excellent fit for that, overall performance is slightly better (shader effects much better) than those cards provided. Since you've got to jump up to a GF265 ($250+) to do the same trick with NVidia in a single card, I'm impressed.

Cons: Without any cooling for the memory chips (not even fins), you're not going to want to be overclocking this card. Not worth a ding, just a point to watch.

Overall Review: Any shader effects in most games are going to be designed with the much lower shader processor count of NVidia chips in mind, so you can go nuts with turning them on. Really adds some nice pop to the visuals.

Pros: Great Price. Quick Delivery

Cons: Kept getting a Driver failed and recovered error due to ATIKMDAG.sys. Come to find out after trying it on several systems running everything from XP Pro SP3 to Win7 64 bit on which other ATI cards in the same series worked that it was bad GPU memory on board. Or at least that is what the Geek that I go to thinks it is.

Overall Review: Hope to get another card and that it works. If it does I will come back and write another review.

Pros: Wow. Just wow. I bought this card for a new build after having a 5 year old gaming computer, and let me just say, this was a HUGE IMPROVEMENT. Im so used to being limited to what games I can play, this card has given me my freedom. This card has taken everything I've thrown at it (Unreal Tournament 3, World in Conflict, Fallout 3, Call of Duty 4 & 5, Bioshock, HAWX), its like the games dont even phase it. It runs cool, quiet, and it play pretty much anything short of Crysis. Again, AMAZING!

Cons: STALKER: Clear Sky kinda sucks. I played it for maybe 20 minutes, and I lost interest immediately. But hey, it was free, and it was worth a shot.

Overall Review: I should have bought 2. But I dont have the second port for it :( A totaly buy.
