Which 4870x2 to get?
Diamond, MSI, Gigabyte, Palit or HIS?
They're all priced within 20 bucks of each other, all have the standard dual DVI ports that I need.
I'm replacing my 8800GTS with a new card and this looks like the winner. Going to be running it in Vista 64 bit and I've been reading some great reviews about ATI's drivers as of late in 64 bit vista.
Any suggestions?
Edit. I should mention it's for gaming @ 1920x1200, I will not be using it for folding@home.

I don't know what cooler MSI puts on the 4870X2, but the heatpipe model they put on a 9800GT and 8800GT that I have is very good and fairly quiet.
sorry about the ratty picture...
Specs were the same, gigabyte has been good to me over the years so I ordered their card. Now I have to play the waiting game. Did I ever mention how much I hate that game?
Depending on how the temps work out, I may look at a better cooling solution, but from what I've read, the included ones are pretty decent.
