So, the 8800GT's are like the Aston Martin DB9's of the GFX card world, loud, powerful and sexy. Whereas on the other hand the ATI 3870 are like the Fiat Panda's of GPU world; slow, quiet and destined for the scrapheap?

C'mon. The 8800 has a 2 letter acronym beside it that has been used on super fast cars and stuff.
Ford GT
VW Guld GT
Ferarri Spider GT
etc
It's gotta be fast.

Woot Woot!!! My 3870 is awesome! Idling at 37C now. Thats cooler than my cpu!! Also, does anyone know when ATI tray tools is gonna support it? What do you guys use to control the fan speeds and clocks? Right now Im using Rivatuner for the fan speed and ATI overdrive for the clocks.
Core clock = 805Mhz
Memory clock=1181Mhz
How are you guys running?Comment

The 3870 is good.... just not as good as the 512mb 8800gt which you can get for the same price.Comment

An underdog means something that is expected not to do well, but can surprise.Originally posted by Hellsent
It won't perform better than a 8800gt so it's not really an underdog.
The 3850 on the other hand is an excellent card for its price, and nothing from Nvidia can compete with it.Comment

To be honest alex i had to order A Graphics card at the time of purchase because i was going to get a 256Mb 8800Gt but the place i wanted to get it from was like 4 weeks overdue and i realy wanted it for xmas..sadly the 3870 was the only decent equivalent because the 512Mb 8800Gts were out of stock as well...and i am sad to say taht a lot of places didnt have the 3870 either...and when i saw it in stock i had to buy it.......although i know i overpaid for it..as i paid 160 pounds....yes lol thats alot but i was desperate...
And yes as you stated it is RED!Comment
