The HD3870 has now been on the market for over 5 months (yes, it really has been that long) and ASUS has sent us their TOP edition of this card. With higher clocks and an accessory package to die for, there is alot to like about this one.

Yeah I get 890 playable and up around 920 benchable out of my HIS with fan speed set to 100%, but mem tops out at about 1300 (2600). This doesn't seem like much of an improvement. Although in fairness, there is a huge difference between finding the max OC on an individual card, and putting out a production model which will hit those kinds of numbers with enough regularity to avoid an RMA nightmare. Overall, I don't think I've been overly impressed with any "out of the box" pre-OC'd cards on the market.

Flashing a BIOS is easy, but finding a proper one to flash is sometimes hard. Has to be the same brand or the checksum wont match. Either way bye bye warranty if you flash. That is about the same as my HIS sswilson, 925 max benchable on H20 @ stock vgpu.
