Radeon HD 4870 1GB

I think I did mention in a previous entry that AMD will release a few variants of HD 4xxx with higher onboard memory.

Now AMD has released Radeon HD 4870 1GB, which most probably benefit those who play games at ultra high resolution (I'm talking 1920x1200 and above!). The card probably is meant to respond to the release of GTX 260 Core 216 not so long ago.

AnandTech has it reviewed here!

I give a clue though: this card beats GTX 260 Core 216 in Crysis! Although that is not a good indication for an overall performance. I suggest you to head over to the review and compare it with GTX 260 Core 216, heck, better still, include GTX 280 as well! You'll be surprised..for a card that cost around MSRP$300, I can call it a winner, once again.

I thought 280 was god.. but now its nothing.. sometimes I really wonder why would we have to spend 200+ dollars on just a mere graphics card? upon that the burden of a higher power smps. Why not just take up PS3 or Xbox?? at the same price? What about the dual video cards option?

hehehe..time flies very fast my friend..even now HD47xx is considered ancient to gamers..

dual video cards solution is good, but you also raise the power requirement for the whole system. plus considering how fast each generation of cards is introduced, most gamers tend to stay away from sticking to the same generation of card by doubling it. we just can't resist the idea that "newer is better"...hmmm..
