DIAMOND Radeon HD 5870 (Cypress XT) 5870PE51G Video Card with Eyefinity
Cons:
None Found to Date.
Pros: Very well priced for its performance. This card out-performs all of my hopes and still continues to amaze me. Direct x 11 and support for every game I've tried while running cool and very quiet. I use my computer for audio recording right next to my machine and the video card is undetectable by my mic. This card runs Shattered Horizon and Crysis as if they were Microsoft Word. |

DIAMOND Radeon HD 5870 (Cypress XT) 5870PE51G Video Card with Eyefinity
Cons:
1. I fear reference cards won't be around longer (or long enough for me to buy another to crossfire with!).
Pros: 1. Huge (I look at this as a plus!)2. Nice design (original reference design!)3. Players well with my Phenom II 1090T X6 and Crosshair IV motherboard4. A powerhouse5. Chews through any game I through at it, and helps with HD video.6. Power efficient7. Fits the color scheme of my hardware (check specs below).8. An original reference card, which makes 3rd party cooling, overclocking and volt modding easier. Comment:
I love this card. It's a powerhouse, and destroys any game I throw at it (GTAIV and Crysis included). I run 2 22 inch 1680x1050 displays, and this works with them nicely.I absolutely love that I was able to get a reference design card, which makes installing waterblocks and other third party cooling easier, as well as voltage mods for OCing.In my pros, I mentioned it fit with the color scheme of my hardware, which is as follows:Case: CoolerMaster Haf 932, matte black paint inside.CPU: AMD Phenom II X6 1090T Thuban Six-Core Black EditionMobo: Asus Crosshair IV FormulaCPU Cooling: Thermalright True Black 120Sound Card: HT Omega Striker 7.1 (its black, fits with everything else!)RAM: 8GB (2x4GB) OCZ Gold 1333mhz OC to 1600mhz, black and red corsair cooling.If you're going to get a 5800 series card, get a reference version.This card destroys any game I can throw at it, so I recommend it to ANYONE. |

DIAMOND Radeon HD 5870 (Cypress XT) 5870PE51G Video Card with Eyefinity
Cons:Wouldn't fit in my Cooler Master Storm scout without moddingExpensive
Pros:Best performing single processor gpu on the market. Comment:
This is an amazing card and would get five stars from me but it would not fit into my Cooler Master storm scout without some modding to the case. The card is also still pretty expensive. Otherwise performance is out of this world. |

DIAMOND Radeon HD 5870 (Cypress XT) 5870PE51G Video Card with Eyefinity
Cons:Can't find a second card anywhere!!!!!
Pros:Awsome resolution 2560x1600, ASOME CARD Get one if you can. Comment:
This is the best card on the market for the price in my oppinion, but I have little knowledge on these things. I trusted NCIX's review and don't regret it for a second. I only wish I could get a second card so I can hook up 4 monitors. |

DIAMOND Radeon HD 5870 (Cypress XT) 5870PE51G Video Card with Eyefinity
Cons:Long card! Seems even longer than my previous GTX 280
Pros:Fast & Furious!Quiet more than 99% of the time Comment:
This card is awesome. The major problem seems to find one ...The only minor drawback is that I have to get used to ATI Catalyst panel. I miss automatic profile activation of Nvidia and a few other issues. |
Purchased 6 weeks ago from NCIX and I am very impressed with this product, I would recomend this quite, cool, high powered card to anyone.
