Diamond Radeon HD 3870 Video Card

[colistro]

@CoDxZombiesFTW considering it still runs most of the actual games at decent frame rates while being played on medium - high settings it doesn't suck at all.

[WillyWobSk8in]

@CoDxZombiesFTW no shit brah this vids from 2008...

[bubblt]

would this run gta4?

[tndrckr]

@bubblt NONONONONONONO DO NOT BUY THIS CARD NOW A DAYS for around 200$ american you can get the gtx 560 or the 5850 they both will probly play gta4 maxed out

my 465 is playing it maxed out everything at 1680 1050

[bubblt]

@tndrckr alittle late, already got it. it plays gta4 alright, medium settings only alittle lag.

[Revanchist8525]

i lovw tigerdirect in the logan days they actually do benchmarks

[oc5nsli341nforce4]

I landed one of these (512mb GDDR4) Viper edition for $56 after ship and so I can wait. This will be the main card in my crossfire setup.

[caleleho]

i can run it with a PSU 480W

[freaktube4]

@caleleho yes

[sailbeipebase]

yeah but i wonder why this guy is out ?? only albert is now remaining ....but i like albert :D ALBERT DO YOU HAVE ANYMORE ONE OF THOSE 4870X2's ....IF YOU DON"T NEED ONE I NEED IT !!!

[Nimerbushnaq]

albert and logan are both cool XD

[G4pcta]

damn..i have a intel g33 (gma 3100)

intel sucks! they say it supports shader model 2

it supports only Pixel shader 2

and vertex shader model 0

[iizsmashgun]

is the sapphire edition this big?

[Cotton926]

no its not as big it is a single slot

[shadowsharpshooter]

u must buy HD3870XT over clocking brand..or sapphire Atomic, Gecube, His..two pieces for make crossfire can run crysis full HD 1090x1080p..

but must use phenom, motherboard 790GX or 790FX, 4Gb ram 1066Mhz.

[hellobooom]

you know nothing, and this makes little sence

[Ma2DaEL]

CF on 790GX? i dont even know what this guy is talking about. Sapphire 3870 single slot is really a waste of money as it dosent OC that much and it will be a bottleneck on those OC edition as thier frequency is higher. Id rather get a HD3870X2 compared to 2 3870 cuz im not using a X38, X48 or a 790FX mobo. But performance, yes. It rawks

[remco19]

well i have a compaq pc so can i upgrade to this card ?? or do i need to buy compaq supplies ??

[card1100]

well compaqs use a G33 which has intel graphcis intel graphics support ATI or Nvidia idk but u mgith wana upgrade the PSU to abut 550watts and then ur good to go

[Ma2DaEL]

even a cheap 450w psu could even support this card. I use to run a 320W PSU on this with no fail

[DaveMustaine8]

BENCHMARKS!

[silentpenguin123]

what happened to this guy he was awesome

[resdudeornardude]

he has his own youtube channel. Look for raze the world.

[silentpenguin123]

found him thanks

[bambinosto]

@silentpenguin123 he started his own youtube channel razetheworld

[pieflyNERD]

@silentpenguin123 Logan is back check the latest tech update logan is back

[BigGuknowme]

Is this kinda of equivelent to 8600GT or better?

[rambow70]

i think 9000gt

[gschreiber94]

no such thing

[rambow70]

i ment 9600gt lol

[shadowsharpshooter]

today a new tech can change some window xp directx9 to get a new format directx10..only engineer can do..i have one too..i have vista ultimate and window directx10, both same quality directx10 when play crisis high setting..but window xp directx10 very better from vista..i dont know why window xp can do its..maybe xp more program can run smooth and clearly..u must thinking its why tech can do everything..

[gschreiber94]

what about this compared to the 9800 GT?

[ki11joy92]

9800 gt kills. a 9600 gt can beat it in like almost half the benchmarks

[nicks1258]

bs look at the specs

[ki11joy92]

lol specs dong matter. its teh benchmarks/games

[shadowsharpshooter]

i have window xp directx 10..true

[gschreiber94]

how?

[ki11joy92]

its called google

[elpelu123]

dont get diamond graphic cards... they have a high rate of failure and the RMA is a piece of crap... no customer service at all.

[oddy1411]

is crossfire included in the box?

[LessthanJake14]

Nerd laugh engage! XD

Crossfire is the technology of linking two ATi GPU's together to render in tandom with eachother. It's Crossfire CAPABLE. If you meant "does it come with an extra GPU?" No. If you meant "is the bridge to attach them together included?" Yes.

[thehellsyeah123]

that card looks alot like an air intake lol

[shadowsharpshooter]

gecube HD3870X Turbo III DDR4 over clock limited edition..more power when using crossfire(increase FPS/bandwidth) and AMD Phenom(increase HT3.0 5200MT/s and 20+bandwidth)must using chipset AMD 790FX...nice..

[shadowsharpshooter]

this DDR4 and more power when crossfire and using AMD Phenom and chipset 790FX

[milton10079]

gddr 3

[shadowsharpshooter]

this graphic card same modul gecube HD3870XT turbolll DDR4 512MB Over Clocking..very smooth play crisis high setting, must compare between motherboard chipset AMD770 and AMD phenom..so power when using Crossfire like my PC

[chickenmantoyou]

i have this card, its brilliant!

[ilordvader]

is this the same card that will be in the ocz notebooks ?

[Vertig0HTM]

yea right! lol u wish

[Laci5000]

Hy guys I have an Nvidia based Asrock motherboard could tell me will it work with an Nvidia based motherboard?

THX

[dna1101]

if it has a pcie slot it will work

[dna1101]

o and it has to have pcie 16x not 1x

[Heer69]

Why the fuck?!?! He's so much more interesting then that other guy.

[overclockeador]

Yes..., the other guy looks like a imitator, look like a fucking nerd...

[simracr94]

now tell me did logan get fired?

[revenge8692]

im gettin the one with 512mb instead of 1gig...whats the price difference

[TimeTwisted]

l o l

[Voudim]

280dollars my ass i can buy 2 8800gt's for 320dollars. what a rip off

[Senquell]

ok,uhmm i will post your card on monday!

[Senquell]

i live in holland

[Senquell]

yeah sure,give me your adress i will send

[Juicestain72]

I have this card, and was wondering which is better to use for power. The 6 bit, or the 2 four bit plugs?

Please respond.

[fletteL88]

thanks a lot!

[fletteL88]

which is better? one of these or one 9800gx2? thanks in advance

[souther]

9800gx2, its blows this video card away

[skylinekona]

it blows your bank away aswell.

[Corrybasler]

Are you kiding me! The 9800GX2 is got 2 GPUs thats only one! The GX2 is way faster!

[Senquell]

i am going to buy 5 of them and giving to poor ppl :)

[Feder147]

poor people dont have computers that can handle that videocard.

[Senquell]

other ppl have gave them computers with 600 watt PSU so yeah.

and they are not so poor. they just dont have money for computers,

[ImGodUFUCK]

Please donate me ONEEEEEEEEE :(((

[Senquell]

ok i will donate one

whats your addres?

[Epsilon0703]

The tiger music makes my sub shake the room!

[DruSmit7]

I must know which is better-

Radeon HD 3870 or Nvidia GTX 280?

Cus I understand this is an older card, so which is better?

[jarinal]

GTX 280 is much better.

But, if you are planning to buy a new card, you should check out the 4870. The 4870 Almost beats the GTX 280, and costs about half the price.:D

[brillman]

agreed :)

[soulmman]

Agreed, you can get two 4870's for less than a GTX 280 and KILL the 280.

[DrZoid99]

They are not on the same league. the 48xx series is to meet the 9 series and the 260/280

The 3870 series was designed to meet the 88xx series with the g92 core.

[MXhm91]

As anyone seen one ATi card that doesn't have red on it??

[tonycao88]

The HIS Radeon HD3870 IceQ is blue.

[MXhm91]

ohh well those cards , damn xD I forgot..

[smcgrath14]

blue ones

[gravediggmn]

plus red on a video card looks badass lol

[j4ckhe]

my sapphire HD3870 single slot is blue

[05murphym]

can you put a water cooling system on this

[NoxeN2008]

card is nice but i do love my evga 8800 GTS 512mb KO edition.

[dp100]

this is actually GDDR4

[Lapa0003]

can anyone tell me.i have the new gigabyte HD3870 512mb GDDR4 i have a crossfire mother board and i was wondering if i could crossfire my current graphics card to a 3870 X2. is it possbile i do have a crossfire mother board i wasn't sure if maybe it wasn't possible because the 3870 X2 would over power it or something cna any help me.

thanks

[kalrathia2]

hey gracias estoy pensando en comprar una de esas que placa me recomendarias para ese video card y con q modelo de procesador de doble nucleo gracias//////hey thanks'm thinking about buying one of those that I recommend to the board video card and q model with dual-core processor thanks

[varonmetus]

Pues hace rato yo me compre una (EAH 3870 de Asus), tengo una mother board m2a-vm hdmi (que es muuuuy económica, Athlonx2 6000+, 2Gb 800Mhz y ahorita la he estado probando con FEAR y Qake4 todo al máximo y la tarjeta responde muy bien. Me falta probar Crysis. Lo malo de la motherboard es que solo tiene un puerto pci express y acepta memorias de hasta 800Mhz (8Gb), tal vez te convena una con CrossFire. Suerte.

[WesMantooth10]

well i'm going to send a pack of wild rabid dogs after you

[leeps291]

You really are just a stupid fuck you cant tell when ppl are just messing around so go fuck your sister you inbread asshole

[NetworkHaze]

Hi Everyone! Im planning buying a new alienware gaming laptop but i dont want spend over 1600 euros so can onyone plz tell me what is the best proccessor prize/performance: Intel Core 2 Duo... T8100 - 2,1 GHz 800MHz 3 MB Cache [+0 €] T8300 - 2,4 GHz 800MHz 3 MB Cache [+118 €] T9300 - 2,5 GHz 800MHz 6 MB Cache [+195 €] T9500 - 2,6 GHz 800MHz 6 MB Cache [+409 €] X9000 - 2,8 GHz 800MHz 6 MB Cache [+701 €] I think that T9300 is the best but its better to hear an expert's opinion.THNX

[stupidguyaabbcc]

i dont know laptop cpus, but the T8300 looks nice for price.

[sashaalx03]

laptop and games don't mix

for the money you spend on a gaming laptop you can build a kickass pc

and from what i see from that list the T9300 should be the best option ;) but i don't know very well laptop cpu's ;)

[MXhm91]

nice having 4gb of graphics memory in crossfireX xD

[DJSKEE2121]

O.o well still they beat all the video cards unite

[DJSKEE2121]

u know wut my Xbox's 360 Video card will pwn all of them will get more then +300 fps LOL!!!

[NHL03692]

Wow, your real uneducated if you think the XBOX 360 can produce better graphics then a high end gaming pc...

[leeps291]

PCs are crap when it comes to gaymin consoles will win all the time

[NHL03692]

You really are just stupid, aren't you. Do some fucking research and then argue with me, until then I won't waste my time. Idiot.

[viciokas1993]

dudes.... u think that gaming console can beat 4 of those bad ass gpu s? well, in ur dreams!!! these days pc s kick ass not only to mac but to everything!

[philhalo66]

logan is the best

[zZzZz805]

u can run 4 of these in the spider platform??? DAMN! i would want to see some benchmarks with that

[spencerpoyle2004]

hey whats better, 2 of these in crossfire or just one 3870x2?

[jasamappa]

2 of course

[DavidEwin]

you can do it with Fraps, but i dunno what they use

[spencerpoyle2004]

well world in conflict and crysis has their own benchmarking tool, not sure about halflife thorugh.

[DavidEwin]

u get better benchmarks when running it during actual play. run the benchmark while u play the game and u get the in-game fps. I also remember seeing one of tigerdirect's videos where they ran a fraps benchmark on screen.

[sergeant07]

you miz coh

[j4ckhe]

did they underclock the RAM or something? i remember the original was GDDR4 @2.2ghz

[spencerpoyle2004]

you may be confising it with the effective speed which is twice the real speed (e.g. 1ghz is 2ghz effective etc)

[kman1111]

I got the 3870 x2 BITCHAS

[spencerpoyle2004]

good 4 u :D

[scotsocool]

he already has

[basterisk]

fire the person that types the video description seems like they just rewrite a short description from the back of the product's box. put some key specs in there and a link to the product page

[WiseWeeabo]

You should compare it to an overclocked 8800gt if you're going to do it at all :P

[topshotnathan]

when you crossfire does that mean you link the 2 graphics cards together so there running as one

[NeoXus299]

yeah, but they work togheter so you get more peformance.

[shyboy2cute]

supports 2 monitors? to extend your desktop? or a seperate monitor to have a dedicated movie player, Pc health status, etc. ?? or both? and how that set up go about?

[YoungGun821]

Finally we can watch in "Higher Quality"

[10ewoldtr]

he said hot ride not hot rod.lololololololololol

[spadge23]

maybe turn the resoltuion down. or somthing.

[HazzyTrix]

800x600 with everything low and off still doesnt work..

even if i do sit through maybe 30 minutes of the new game video at the start with the plane, and then we jump out in smooth flawless slow motion,

the graphics are amazing and the image quality is perfect, no sliding of frames, its all perfect but like slow motion.

help!?

[spadge23]

maybe you need to update the game to the latest version. maybe ur video card wasent supported by the game yet. update it then try. if it still dont work. then i dont know :\

[newpokemon35]

hi m ndfiu n9duf

[Funwithcam852]

Nice!

[davidw89]

stop spamming ffs

[nikkhoo]

what Nvida card is like this one ?

a 8800 GTX ??

sorry, i know a lot about Nvidia, but i dont anything about ATI

[o0JGS0o]

this VC is more more more advanced

Pardon for my English

spanish, spanenglish haha

[tacobobbob]

If I add a good cooler to my HD 3850 will I be able to clock it close to the stock 3870?

[Iferno600]

it dependes you need to find out what your max overclock is first and then see if you acully need the extra cooling

[khompressor]

LOGAN, YOU ARE THE MAN! People are just jealous of their inferiority to you. Keep up the good reviews; I learn a lot from you.

[LETHLSS]

hey logan, wussup

[xXxRsPkerxXx]

YEAH!

logan i love ya

[aeagle326]

he;s depressed because retards who feel safe behind a keyobard and a monitor say stupid shit about him. cheer up logan! lots of people love you

[Matttix]

WOW wut happened Logan? Did ur wife left u or smthin? Cheer up dude! I wanna see the explodin' Logan!

[nvleo4what]

i know righht

[stevenshl2]

they gave him. pills.....

[FreakingLogan]

lol... too many videos per day...

[lxlsLiCkNiCklxl]

hell yeah

[rafaellavratti]

I mean, piknix, Could you explain it better?

[thetruebattlefront]

WHERES RANDY!!!!!!!!!!

[chiefredbeard]

That card will never fully utilized the 1GB of memory with a 256bit interface.

[piknix]

in less than 2-3 weeks the nvidia cards will be out same with the new ati cards so people just wait!

[rafaellavratti]

Could you explain it better?

[SGT4EVA]

omg thats sick

[Heartagramerz]

who cares lol

[jacktharippares]

logan freeking rocks!!!!!!!!!!

[wildwolves8]

I have an 8800 gt superclocked and it's way more better than the 3870.

[webjthefirst]

But is it better than an ATI HD 3870X2?

[mealexxx]

on another note, anyone got some gossips on when the 4800's are coming? I think it's this month

[ivefantrance]

In less than 3 weeks, 4850 will be out, 4870 bit delayed due to GDDR5 shortage.

[mealexxx]

thanx my good man! LOGAN you better do a review as soon as it comes out of the oven!

[Heartagramerz]

Don't you mean out of the future??

[mealexxx]

you guys should include the links as before it's faster to get to the product XD

[megotrice]

Wait, if that takes up 2 slots, won't you be better off with the X2?

[luanswan2002]

I wouldn't really get this card over the 8800gts or 8800gt, both Nvidia cards are faster and competitively priced. Sorry ATi.

[sweetdudess]

hey, can i run this card in crossfireX with Sapphire Radeon HD 3870 Video Card?

[illmagnified]

I was Debating on whether or not i should have gone with this 1 Gb 3870 or the Nvidia EVGA 8800GT SuperClocked GDDR3 512MB. I play FPS's and Fantasy games like Oblivion at the native resolution of 1680X1050 on my 22" HD WideScreen LCD so i needed some serious power instead of the 8600GT (I have an extra one if anyone is interested in purchasing it for cheap money) or the 3850 from ATI. I Actually went with the Nvidia EVGA 8800GT SuperClocked with my Intel Quad Core and i couldn't be happier.

[r0ck0ut16]

Lance? What happened to Randy? There is more than one source of off screen input? I'm confused...

[russianfart]

or eric

[mupet00000]

Logan, you KNOW you would rather an 8800GT than that. You KNOW.

[eddie2593]

4 in a system.....

is that wht it says 4 video cards in 1 motherboard??

[Raptole]

YES! That's right!

[eddie2593]

FUCK!

[rafaellavratti]

GeForce GTX 280 and GTX 260, is it true???

[r2stik]
