Is it me or did i just see the 4850 Crossfire only come on top of the 9800GTX / GX2 / GTX280 ONLY in programs benchies and not in games?
From the way the review started i was waiting to see it win in some games but it wins in virtually none. I hope the 4870 is a far better card but considering the heat output and the power consumption of the 4850s in CF i think its safe to say that the 4870 in CF will be even worse.
Thats why i like single card solutions more.

Hai,

I'm wondering whether the reference PCB is the same as the HD3870. In that case the VF900-Cu could be used as a proper cooling solution, leaving the original heat sinks on the card.
