- I started using a Mac about a year ago and I actually only used it for about 4 months and it collected dust for the other 8. My old PC was starting to grow old on me so I decided to sell the Mac and build a new dream machine. I upgraded from a Radeon 4850 to a 5750 and this was ...Ok but it still seemed a little weak.New Setup:*Asus AM3 EVO 880 mobo with USB 3.0 and Sata 6gbs.*AMD Phenom II 965 x4 3.4 Ghz Black Edition*8 Gb DDR3*Hitachi deskstar SataIII 2tb 7200rpm hdd*Samsung P2770h 27 inch display with 1 MS response timeI decided to add a little more power and picked this card, the best way to describe it is that it runs much faster and smoother then any game console. 0 frame rate issues 0…
- After reviewing most of the HD6870 models from different companies, I bought the Diamond one from Fry's, mainly because they were the only place where I could get it immediately.Diamond's version comes with a crossfire link and nothing else. I have everything else I needed to hook it up anyway.This thing takes everything I throw at it with ease. Far Cry 2, everything on max at 1920 resolution. Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War 2, everything at max. Even Call of Duty: Black Ops, everything at max.If you're needing all the cables and converters, look at the Sapphire model. But if you already have everything you need, I don't think it matters much on which brand you get.
