I don't know guys, I mean there's nothing really wrong with it, but i've always just loved single card, not double card, and especially x-fire or SLI. I don't know why... I don't even have good reason's for it :P.

But enough bias, It does looks pretty good, ATI(AMD) is looks going for the GPU's too bad they can't seem to get the CPU to the same level of performance.

I am wondering 4870 still have the 2600 transparent texture problem (annoying bug, espically for some pixel shader 1.1 and 2.0 games that are designed for nvidia, no problems for new games tho.). if the bug is gone then, this card will be the best

one thing for this article is... the power consumption while idle is not tested. :P
