It's taking a lot of self-control on my behalf to keep me from order two of them.............I'm waiting until Dec.-Jan. time frame to upgrade........maybe even later.

*sigh*
or get a visiontek 4850 with a lifetime warranty

Looks like an impressive card, though I thought the 4870 was supposed to have 1GB of GDDR5.

Not to shabby considering the GTX 280 has 2x the RAM and cost 2x as much

Wow, that is the longest review I've EVER seen. And the best explained, like the diagrams too. HD 4870 looks just too good. Are all of Hardware Canucks reviews the same as this one? O.O
