Pros: Solid card with 2 GB. Good OC for the type of card this is. Love the blue LEDs! Also, I like how this card has native HDMI and also a native Display Port, so, no adapters needed and I dont trust using an included DVI to HDMI adapter anyway when I can use a native port instead.

Cons: None really. I see people saying that the card doesn't come with an 8 pin cable, just two 6 pins instead. Well, if you have a PSU that has an 8 pin and a 6 pin then you're already set. If not, call the company and they'll send you an 8 pin out for nothing! Why are you deducting eggs for this? Has nothing to do with how this card performs. To the person below who says you need a 750 watt PSU for only one card, WHAT? I have 2 of these in CrossFire and I'm using a 750 watt PSU running both cards! And have plenty of wattage left over. Look at the specs, it says you only need 600 watts for running two of these. Of course, it also depends on what else you're running on your system too, but a 750 PSU is plenty for most people running 2 of these cards.

Overall Review: Search for 'extreme power supply calculator' and you'll see how to find the total wattage your system needs. It calculated I only needed a 650 or so PSU, so 750 is plenty extra for me. Make sure you have plenty of amps for the 12V rails also. I have 25 amps on all 4 of my rails so I'm good to go. Also, people need to check how wide their space is between PCI Express slots before they order this card, you can plainly see in the pics that it has fins on the back for extra cooling so allow for it. They fit just fine on my Intel DX58SO!

Pros: As if it's not already blisteringly fast, I used CCC to auto-tune it to 940Mhz clock and 1065Mhz on the RAM... and it can go faster! This thing is insane, the vapor-x system is quiet and super efficient... allowing a lot of room for OC'ing. I know I can get more out of the RAM, but right now it's doing everything I want it too and it's not putting out much heat. Using manual fan settings, I keep it going at 65% power and it's hardly audible.

Cons: Blue LED... everything else in my case is green. But really, that's not even a con. I would say it's expensive, but honestly I got everything I paid for... so in that regard it's not expensive.

Overall Review: Good thing it is so fast, I don't think my wallet can justify running 2 of these right now... maybe in another month or so. Also, if you plan on getting this, make sure your Power Supply is big enough to handle it. For reference, I'm using a mushkin 800W PS and it's perfect for all that I've got stuffed in my PC (4 HDD, DVD, AM3 Phenom II, this vid card, a ton of fans, and some other goodies too).

Pros: Fast, quiet. Less power draw than a 4870 or a 4870x2 or 2x 4870. Newer. 2GB video ram will pay off for DX11 games. DX10.1 support = partial DX11 support.

Cons: Big card, uses 2 6 pins.

Overall Review: 5870 is around the corner so might not be worthwhile to everyone considering DX11 should up graphics quality a lot with tessellation.

Pros: 2gb makes all the difference in this game. Many like my son had 4870X2 with crashes left and right. Suggest changing the viewing distance until you have this card. With this card I can turn all the eye candy on and with my AMD 965 a GTAIV machine is born without spending $1500 like an I7.

Cons: Crossfire was not needed for this game. Hoping more games support crossfire. Seems like they don't. Sli was the same waste. Except for crysis I have nothing that uses more than 1 card. Must turn up fans to 75% to keep cool for extended gameplay. Noise is not too bad. My UPS is now too small at 750VA. Need a 1200 and up, ouch.

Overall Review: If you must have NVida I suggest the amd 965 with the new ddr3 980a msi board and then some gtx 275 1796mb cards. A pair of those is around $600. A pair of these is around $500. I paid $245 on sale here at the egg.

Pros: Got 2nd card today and with amd 965, ddr 3 790fx msi gd70 obtained 48 fps avg very high with all AA turned on & vertical sync Crysis 1.21 with 58 fps maximum. I got the 2gb model for GTA IV and future games. The other games I have use less video ram. I resell systems so this gives me firsthand an alternative for my customers to Intel/NVidia in a down economy.

Cons: Some of my games like css do not use crosfire x. Will be testing GTAIV this weekend. My son insists it only uses one card. Does not auto select very high or enthusiast in crysis or warhead. But runs great compared to my single gtx 285 I gave to my younger son for his wolfdale.

Overall Review: I wanted to test crossfire 4890 OC with the newer am3 965 since none of the reviews on the web have that so far. I was not disappointed for the money. Had I gone the other way it would have been an I7 3.0 bloomfield with a gtx 285 2gb card for GTAIV. The new I7's use only dual channel ram. Really happy with my dragon system so far.

Pros: Got tired of the Nvidia gouging and went ATI. gave my 285gtx to my son. Instead of $400 for a 2gb card I pay $150 less. It ha sbeen buttery smooth and my score in CS source is now at 296 fps with my new amd 265 3.4 ghz.

Cons: none

Overall Review: PCS 950 my other choice but games are becoming more demanding of video ram. Not sure if I will crossfire yet since it seems more than adequate so far. Using an amd 965, msi 790fx gd70, caviar black 1tb, antec 1200 case, with antec cp850, ordered ocz amd edition ram to replace my ocz 1333 fatality ram.

Pros: Card works great for me. Temperatures stay low when the card is idle unlike my 4850's. The cards cooling system is pretty sweet. I love the overclocking room on this card. I can overclock the $hi+ out of this and temps are good and crysis works. Not the best but works better than those stalk coolers by all other cards. Just idle i'm 39C. Loads are around 49C. (Keep the house cool peopel). Crysis Wars giving me about 125 FPS on medium size maps. Some of the larger maps run just as good. Maps that drain the shaders life to nothing i get about 65-75 FPS. On the highest (MAXED) graphics setting allowed i get 45-60 FPS on average.

Cons: I excpeted more for what i paid, but yet again i was only given a few FPS increase and sometimes equal to my old cards. I had 2 4850's so that made them close. (SILL CHEAPER AND BETTER THAN 285 295 PRICE AND PERFORMANCE)

Overall Review: I like to see numbers, so for those of you who write a review and say "cards died" "cards good" "cards work" please be more specific you're not helping anyone with that kind of ridiculous review. Give some more information or leave it out because your messing with a good cards rating.

Pros: people that have these in crossfire, what x58MB are you using. Doesn't fit EVGA's E758-TR MB in crossfire

Cons: won't fit all MBs in crossfire due to memory heatsink on backside of card
