    There is already an OC+ extra memory + zalman fan version of the 3850 that looks quite good.

    Oooh, if that overclocks to 3870 levels then that's a bit of a bargain! These 3850s aren't far off of being X1900XT levels already, and only £30-40 more than a X1950Pro...

    Out of interest, has anyone seen a review testing a pair of 3850's in crossfire? How does it compare to a single overclocked 880GT??

    Re: 3800 series variants

    It's be interesting to see if the heatsink holes line up with the x19xx series of ATI cards, if so we could use an Arctic Cooler.
    The situation's looking...

    Where Crossfire work, 2x 3850 is apparently comparable to one GTX. But the same page also note that where crossfire fail, it's slower than a single card.

    Techreport also include the OC GT numbers. But if you look at most 3850 reviews, you should be able to find 3850 crossfire and GT/GTX numbers.
