  • Faster than a 4850, Smaller than a GTX 260
  • Not earth-shattering performance, Lots of competition

  • Abstract:  You may think that the Radeon HD4870 is a high-end card with its specifications and features but youd be wrong. AMD wants to give you more bang for your buck and it has certainly succeeded - with bells on - with the HD4870. Its price tag puts in firm...

  • Price is always a big factor in major component purchases and in this case it really does put a heavy swing in favour of the 4870. From a check at the time of writing it is possible to buy the Radeon for $20 or £20 less than a GTX 260 which is enough ...

  • Sapphires Radeon HD4870 card offers an impressive amount of graphics power at a modest price and, while it wont appeal to the power gamer, its more than enough for most users. Neil Bennett Buy related product: Sapphire RADEON HD 4870 X2 2GB DDR5 75...

  • Abstract:  Having been massively impressed by Sapphires Radeon HD 4850, we couldnt wait to see what its faster sibling, the HD 4870, could achieve. It certainly looks a more powerful card, as it has a large heatsink which takes up two slots. This was one of ...

  • Low overclocking limits in the CCC, No Sapphire branded overclocking software...
  • The Sapphire HD 4870 performed exactly where the other HD 4870 cards have been and that is right on top of NVIDIAs GTX 260 series cards. I cannot stress enough the great performance that is being achieved by the HD 4870 cards for the price that it is...

  • Lets wrap things off by first talking a bit about overclocking. We were able to crank the core on this Sapphire all the way upto 890MHz and 1100MHz on the memory. This shot the scores of the GPU from 8666 in 3D Mark Vantage to 10003- about a 15% incre...

  • La Radeon HD 4850 es una tarjeta que ofrece un gran rendimiento por el precio y consumo que tiene, pero siempre hay usuarios que desean más y no era cuestión de dejar a NVIDIA sola en la gama alta de tarjetas gráficas. La HD 4870 se presenta como la co...
