For anyone who is considering buying a 6870!

[The Halo Don]

I made a playlist of how the card performs with certain games(BF3, FO:NV, Crysis)

Hope this helps you realize how much of a great card it is!

Here's the playlist:

I didn't watch them all but BF3 really suffers from lack of vram. proves my point 1gig isn't enough.

I it's the fact that on ultra AA is enabled, resulting in such low FPS.

But when I play with everything on High and no aa, I get +60FPS

Believe it or not, i already watched your bf3 video a few days ago when i was deciding between 6950 and 6870. decided 6870 is good enough.

Also, I bought my 6870 at Fry's for 174.99 with a MIR of $20.

Also got Shogun 2 and Dirt 3 for free.

yeah, the 6870 just went up in price at newegg by 10 bucks, which really sucks because the max i have is 165, and I'm totally not buying the powercolor/HIS version D:

also on newegg its 175 without a MIR
