Taking into account performance, compatibility, cost, aesthetics, & overclock potential it stands as a top-5 GPU of all time
By Carole Pearce
I've spent much effort in balancing cost-effectiveness and raw power over the short (but busy) build & modification history of my current rig. I've always looked down at "Alienware" style brands, sacrificing in analogous terms a year's worth of car payments to sell away the stimulating JOY of fabricating piece by piece a device to some college student following instructions utterly (or largely) generic in specification. Foregoing the somewhat secondary point about paying substantial profit-padding to acquire a machine of this ilk, what really's lost is the challenge, pride, & top to bottom personal design integration that makes carefully thought out modding an extension of the person behind it. From utter basic component organization like wire color & routing.. on to personal scheming for discharging thermal waste while maintaining high performance, confining such between self-imposed db & electricity maximums, or voltage adjustment in overclocking, and on and on.Design follows function, as they say. With computers, functions are so varied that I don't see how a person might illicit total satisfaction forsaking absolute control in building the rig. Just a brief interlude, so to speak. I built a turbo-charged, 355 V8 Firebird Formula (f-body) that was model-year 1994. Only a year after, the LT1 motor crammed so tightly it seemed to suffocate the engine bay, was replaced by the far superior LS1, rendering the value & reputation of my former pride & joy seriously deflated. After years of very, very involved modification of my Firebird Formula, my back-seat gutted roll cage turbo-charged freak (in a good way) overcame in several nose lengths the latest generation V-10 Viper, & I celebrated with license plates that read : VPER ETR. There was an opportunity to purchase, at 7 times the final investment of my ride, a Dodge Viper and save 2 years of blood, grit, burns & sweat and instantly have the power I worked so hard for. People do it like this all the time; whether laziness or impatience or time restraints, I don't know - but I find it bizzare.That said, I consider the 5870 to be, on every level, amongst the best 5 GPUs that have ever been in production. My evaluation stems from at least a decades worth of cards and thus can not derive exclusive from processing yields. I am looking at the leap-forward technologies the industry is on the verge of integrating and correlatively this chipset's ability to address all of them. And as it's in the Radeon 5000 series, it has distinction of being the most powerful of a generation of cards that was first in adopting these rendering features. The behemoth PCI-e card is so impressive in practical use that, upon reading this paragraph again, I am failing to communicate due justice. It's nearest competition, the Nvidia GTX 480, comes across as hot, noisy, unrefined engineering in comparison. & while the 480 does, indeed, outperform it's closest competition, and my opinions saturated with subjective (& arguably unfair) criticism, I default to the personal expectations earlier reference in the compilation of my rig.Before my conclusive remarks, let me ardently dismiss implications of my having an ATI-based erection and made the preceding analysis entrenched by a bias. I am, in fact, obsessed with the graphics card industry & fascinated with the engineering & innovations we consumers are so fortunate to derive UNBELIEVABLE benefit from. My Samsung R780 laptop (easily the best laptop I've ever seen or used) is fitted with a low profile external graphics card; the card being a Geforce GT 330m. This played a HUGE role in my decision to purchase my laptop. Having used previously the HD 3200, and subsequent HD 3470 (both embarrassing products) in my pricey laptops, I went back to NVidia & consider the GT 330M a PHENOMENAL mid-end card that effectively crushes the functions I require it for. My Zune HD also has the unquestionably amazing (& superior to the itouch, at least strictly addressing hardware) Tegra-chip. Frankly, the GPU industry has developing so phenomenally (& with reasonable cost) because of the fierce competition between ATI & Nvidia. Looking at the advancements spanning the preceding decade, I feel gratitude & amazement for both companies.At time of composing this review, I have prepared my shop to swap out & install a variety of devices that just arrived. Included in these swaps is my brilliant Radeon HD 5870 - but, should that seem as confusing, given the tone of my review, it is in fact, not. I have opted to go with an XTX Radeon HD 5970: Black Edition. For those not up to speed on specifications related to the recent GPU cards, the 5970 is literally a 5870 x 2, with lower clock speeds. This edition comes with the over/under volt application from XFX. Damn, I can't wait. Thanks for reading!

Handles everything I throw at it and very stable.
By Jeremy
I just picked one of these XFX 5870 XXX edition video cards and it is sweet. From what I've been told it is the fastest 5870 on the market and I believe it. The install was a little screwy because it wanted to scale the viewable screen size to about an inch from the edges but I went into the catalyst program and manually scaled it. That's the only problem I've had. I've clocked it up to 1100/1300 and it has not crashed yet even during very strenuous 3d tests and very graphics intensive games. I'm very pleased so far and have experienced zero problems so far. It was a huge step up from 2 8800 GTS 512's running in SLI.The rig it's running in: MSI k9n2 SLI Platinum MB, AMD 955 Black, 8GB Kingston HyperX ram. So far I'm getting around 60fps in some of the busiest games. I can't imagine crossfiring 2 or more of these unless you're running a huge monitor or 2.Update: After using it for a while I got rid of it. I ran into some conflicts between the 10.2 drivers and autocad which is what I primarily use my rig for. Fast card just not stable at all with autocad open. I got a BFG gtx 295 and it has been golden for both gaming and autocad.

Disappointed
By ghdjgdf
I bought this video card because at the time it was the best on the market. This particular one is an XXX Edition meaning that its overclocked by the manufacturer. It does NOT work properly with factory settings. I had to decrease the VRAM's frequeny from the original 1300 MHz to 1200 MHz so that it would not die with a blue screen every half hour. After this it worked flawlessly for about 5 months. Then it started showing pink color instead of whites and greys, which is very annoying. Tried to fix it with a reboot, but then it wouldn't even start and hasn't worked since then. I'm very disappointed with this product and I'm returning it to XFX. Also, I would recommend to buy two HD6850s for this price which generally have have a better performence (not from XFX, of course).
