HIS H489F1GP Radeon HD 4890 1GB hows it stack up?

[iahwhite]

Hey guys, im a noob and im about to buy a HIS H489F1GP Radeon HD 4890 1GB 256-bit PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Retail

I noticed it didnt have ATI anywhere in the title...its not some cheap knock-off is it?

Also, im wondering about it versus the nvidia geforce GTX 275...what do you all think? Thanks

The GTX275 is a direct competitor to the HD 4890, each is better at certain games, neither has overall dominance.
Best advice: Stick to one chip maker, switching from ATI to Nvidia or vice-versa can cause problems with drivers, and some here recommend a full reinstall of Windows if you do so.

Rest easy:
