mine is fine, btw what game you having a problem? please give more details

i got mine from skcs1985, good seller, you can try to PM him.

first you need to know how many thousand pieces of card they already sold, and what you see only few of them. so don't worry.

yap all same mama, nothing difference at all, sorry forget to tell the sticker are difference between each brand.

ppl always said 4870x2 high temp.... m... full load only 69c or a bit more (edit the profile let the fan run at 45% speed solved your problem) and also don't forget 4870x2 inside the card have 2x GPU, so it still can maintain that temp level, so what can i say that nice man.

m.. i put the fan 2000rpm but in GPU-z showed 28xxrpm (45%) in XML profile. 2800rpm is fine for me, the temp is 54c

mine is 28xx rpm i feel ok, for me most important is cool it down, that is purpose.

1, use GPU-Z, per GPU is 1GB then total is 1gb x2 = 2GB so that is normal.

2, for the BIOS kindly check whether you BIOS have compatible issue with 4870x2, since you are using Gigabyte please check with they website. my Abit IX38 QuadGT have this issue, so i have to flash back to older version BIOS.

3, for 4870x2 you found that when power on the fan will run full speed then back to normal (normal and healthy) and also you will notice when playing 3D games the fan will suddenly run at higher speed is because built-in auto temp control, if the temp reach that level then the fan will run at that speed to reduce the temp .... so you will hear the fan suddenly noisy and suddenly silent. (normal)

4, check the PSU 12v rail whether stable with multi tester when running 3D games.

that XML profile i also don't know how adjust correctly.. 1 is RPM and another is set for percentage of the fan speed...z

if i put 50% and 2500rpm then rpm up to 38xx rpm?! that almost like plane take off liao ....

Sapphire, so same mama.

try to turn off the "Wait for vertical refresh" in Catalyst.

what PSU u are using? 12v how many AMP?

DFI already reported they got few model mainboard have BIOS compatible problem with 4870x2 like Abit, but if not mistake they already released the new BIOS and solved the problem.

for Abit i think will never release the BIOS to fix the problem.

if not mistake your PSU got 4x 6-pin then the best choice is go for 4870 crossfire. then you don't have to change the case and PSU too

those 3DMarks not mean everything at all. better post some actually frame rate in games.

Advanced Warfighter 2, Frontlin: Fuel of War, Crysis and GRID. ... only thing is Crysis at 1920x1200 - HIGH get below 30fps

Maybe

fan speed at 60% and u get 84c?... i used 45% only the temp not more then 80c.

even u have money to buy those 4x 4870x2 also useless bro, the most important is whether those games support it or not.

that called CrossFireX

i don't carry about DX10, DX10.1 or DX11. as soon as it run fast and cheap is enough for all of us.

for intel chipset P45 should be fine. P35 also ok.

maybe he asking about the compatible problem, like X38 chipset.

maybe you u need to read more on this forum and others forums too, bro. Abit IX38 QuadGT with BIOS 14 you can even see the POST screen with 4870x2.
