It's only 512MB, though... What does it compare to a standard 4870 1GB?
there is 1GB toxic coming soon...
3930K | H100i | RIVF | 16GB DDR3 | GTX 480 | AX750 | 800D | 512GB SSD | 3TB HDD | Xonar DX | W8

once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.
*gotta beat max*...

4870 512mb vs 4870 1Gb = the same performance unless you are gaming in >1920x1200 or playing the few games that require tons of memory, e.g. crysis.FFLink13 wrote:

I just read an article on tomshardware about Palit Sonic vs Sapphire Toxic vs Reference.
Palit cools slightly better (7c less) than the Toxic but is louder.. and both are over 35c cooler than reference cooler.
Benchmarks show the Palit and Sapphire card pretty even. for every benchmark the palit wins the sapphire wins one. howeverr both card beat reference although only by a few frames in each test.
EDIT: tomshardware concludes Palit is the winner because its the coolest, best performing and least expensive.

Have you done any volt mods? I hear it's pretty easy with the 48X0 cards, and your monstrosity that you call a cooler shouldn't have any problem handling the extra heat.haffeysucks wrote:

This is the newest card available here from palit, and only one small store seems to sell it,,

the new CCC works pretty well. I see no reason for riva tuner unless you're going to push above the CCC limits which are anyhow above what you can reach usually. No volt mods yetCrazeD wrote:

Well if 850/1100 is the max (appears to be on your SS), that is hardly unreachable.max wrote:

What's so special about this card?
The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP
