I'm trying to gauge my 3870 against other cards to see where it rates. I usually check hwbot.org, but my card is not listed:

http://www.hwbot.org/quickSearch.do?hardwareId=GPU_1236

See, they just have the 512MB one.

I have the Sapphire Radeon HD 3870 1GB GDDR4 with VaporX cooling Technology - http://www.komplett.ie/k/ki.aspx?sku=354771

I'm pretty sure it's not the X2, because there's no X2 anywhere on the box. Any idea where it rates?

the same as the standard one, it just has more memory AFAIK for the most part memory helps with bigger resolutions.

The home page lets me login, but the forums don't recognize my username??? Can you ask? Otherwise I'll have to make another username

EDIT: I had to submit a ticket on the card. I don't know if that's right.

Register using the same name ;)

They need a print screen using GPUZ

I installed it in another system. Here's the GPU-Z

I think I'm going to get the 3870 X2 for my R2-M5 update instead.
