Hi all,
So I'm thinking about upgrading my 8800GT to a 4870. Sapphire put out a 4870 with a different cooler (Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100259L Radeon HD 4870 512MB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards) and I was wondering if it's worth it to get that one rather than the original card. Has anyone tried this card out? Does it have a better cooling solution?
Also @ 16x10 res, 1GB or 512mb? I could possibly upgrade to 19x12 so would it "future proof" me?
Thanks
