None of these justify your current card placement.
The first offers a clearly biased review with no actual testing. The second shows the 4890 beating the 4870X2 which contradicts your current list (and is rather questionable in itself). And the third shows only synthetic tests, like Conley mentioned, which don't really matter, and because it's written in Arabic (?) I can't tell if they took any measures to correct for this. |
