I changed my 3870 X2 for this pre OC card that was on sale. Very fast gpu and rams, beautiful card. Actually overclocked at 771mhz (gpu)/ 1620mhz (shaders) / 2800mhz (rams, effective). Very stable, 35 celcius idle and 40 celcius load with Dtek Fuzion GFX 2. Only downside would be the up coming 4870 X2 that will probably put the performance of that card down for the same price, maybe cheaper. This review was modfied by poster w 08-02-08 10:37 AM

Running a single card in new pc on an asus p5q3 mobo. No problems running games at 1900x1200. While quite expensive, hopefully will be good enough for about three years.
