  • Great gaming performance for the price, Stereoscopic 3D support with compatible monitors and HDTVs, Five ports makes connecting multiple monitors easier
  • Doesn't best Nvidia's GTX 480 (or even AMD's own previous-generation HD 5870), Requires two six-pin power connectors, Blocks adjacent slot
  • AMD’s latest gaming card doesn’t outperform Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 480, but it's surprisingly close considering it costs about half the price. It’s a great choice for all but the most demanding gamers. ...
