    My new 4870 :D

    Just got the new 4870 from scan about an hour ago and everything is in the case now, i now have a proper computer Apparantly scan only got 10 cards in, I just though i'd give a few pictures etc. for everyone to have a looksy at.


    The new card fresh out of the box


    Everything you get bundled with the card:
    CD with drivers etc.
    S-video to Component cable adapter
    DVI to HDMI adapter
    DVI to VGA adapter
    2 Molex to 6 pin adapter
    Crossfire Link
    Component cable extender
    Manual


    Inside its new home


    Close up


    There is a fair bit of space at the end of the card compared to others I have seen in a P182, shame the power cables get in the way of placing a fan on the adapters on the HDD cage


    Another looksy


    All done


    The new desk space, with the favourite forum


    The whole setup

    On start up the thing make a hell of a racket, I am assuming this is its full fan speed so if you are going to overclock one of these and are thinking of wacking the fan speed up beware! At idle the noise is quite minimal and nothing to write home about!
    Right now off to play some games

    what dodgy memory?

    It was never proved that cards dying was memory fault, but people were flashing using an incorrect BIOS.

    No, haven't tried it yet. Lets just say "i need to put in work"

    I need a new card for my pc i was thinking about a 4850, but it doesn't really offer next gen performance like the 4870.

    Ikix nothing is worng with your ram setup, it's just not common also whats your system specs?
