Palit 4870 GDDR5 have any problems?

[KingstonU]

Found it for $264.99 CA after $20.0 MIR with 1 year manufacturer's warranty

Palit 4870 GDDR5

Any problems with this card? Will be any different than all other 4870s?

Thanks

1 year warranty seems bad. I wouldn't buy any computer part that has such a warranty.

Yes, because for $10 less you can get the one with A much better fan. The downside though is that the hot air will not be exhausted outside your case. So if that matters, go for the stock version.

And the warranty is 2 years. So unless you go with Visiontek, there is no reason not to go for this card

Exactly, this is the card I'll be going for if nothing more appealing comes within the month. It's supposed to have better power regulation, cooling, and a "turbo" button for automatic overclocking, although it doesn't overclock that far over standard.

Ati hasn't recently made any bum chips, so long warranty is not a huge issue for me. :beer:
