Cons: no memory heat sinks.no fan speed controlonly so so temps with stock heat sink. Even tho there are three display outputs it can only use two at a time. Other Thoughts: I just received my rebate, it only took 5 months. I replaced the stock fan with a ARCTIC COOLING ACCELS1 Rev 2. from Newegg.com Cons: The memory is hot on it and has no cooling, if you try to even edge the gpu pass the default 750mhz it will crash! This is unacceptable! To get crossfire working I had to talk to tech support and run a number of tests. The default bios that comes with it DOES NOT WORK WITH CROSSFIRE! from Newegg.com Pros: bought a 3870 from gigabyte a couple of years ago which has been flawless. decided it was time evolve into the 4870 Cons: about to click on buy until i noticed the rebate was another worldwiderebate scam. from Newegg.com Pros: This is an update to a previous review I wrote a few months ago. This card is great! from Newegg.com Pros: This is a good board and works well, has that great Radon preformance. Played witcher on it it was flawless you can open up all the video features. from Newegg.com Pros: Good at keeping itself around ~52C for the most part, can get up to 72-75C under prolonged heavy graphics but cools right down when finished. 1GB DDR5! from Newegg.com Pros: Gigabyte makes very good Video Cards and I would by another of this card. One is all you need to play ANY game. from Newegg.com Pros: Great single slot card. DVI and HDMI ports, 1GB of GDDR5 memory. Cons: Won't crossfire - I purchased a second card to crossfire, and I am using a Gigabyte MB w/crossfire. from Newegg.com Much better 3d performance than the 4850 I had. The displayport is very handy too. Runs 2 dell 30" with no problems. Cons: 2 problems, mostly minor:1. from Newegg.com Pros: Card looks great and runs great, blue PCB looks great in my clear case (I refuse to buy a red card). Native DVI, HDMI and Display Port is awsome and only card that supports all three. from Newegg.com
