XFX 5870 just arrived

[Vekiq]

Installation went without any issues, running latest hotfix driver.

I upgraded from 3870x2

So far tried

Black shark
Microsoft flight sim X
Dirt2
Lock on Flaming cliffs
Race on

All works fantastic, frames are higher than before, image quality has improved quite a bit too.

Downloading Avp atm, steam is a bit slow just now, we shall see how it will handle dx 11

Rest of my spec is

Intel E8400 @ 4 GhZ
Abit x38 quad gt
4 gig ocz reaper ram
Antec Neo He 550
win 7 64 bit

So far i am impressed.

Sapphire 5870 here, great card, don't be afraid to whack up the AA/AF, it loves the abuse.

Yep, maxed out mass effect 2 in CCC and it looks way better.
