as there is so many at the same price or around a few quid more.....now everyone seems to go for the sapphire as there are loads more replies on the review page....fed up know i waited for the 480 ...what people are sayin its a waste of time lol especially if you pay the electric bill hehe so come on i am using xfx now on the 4890.
 
im personally waiting for the 2gb cards as im going to be using eyefinity so i will see a benefit at the higher resolutions
 
cough lol cough when is this due on overclockers lol as for the 2 gb ones eyfinity is that were you can use 3 monitors as one lol
 
wow youll need your own room for the monitors but i personaly are not to bothered as hate the thought of the gap between each one .
 
most people say this til you use it, the idea is not really for it to look like 1 big screen its more for peripheral vision and FOV, racing games for example are great as you can see cards now coming up the sides of you and FPS you might see an enemy you wouldnt have usually.

The bezels really dont come into play as your main focus is on the centre screen, i do agree some setups are pointless for this type of gaming such as 2x3 or 1x4 anything where the centre of your FOV is on a bezel is pointless.
