DIAMOND ATI Radeon HD 4870 PCIE 1024MB GDDR5 Video Card 4870PE51GVideocards are something that have always kind of annoyed me, it seems they're always releasing a new one, technology that was hot a few months ago is now obsolete. Then again, that's the way it is with most technology so I'm not sure why it surprises me, but it, the upgrades, just seems to go much faster with video cards. Today for review I've got the Diamond ATI Radeon 4870 1gig video card. As you can see be the name it features 1 gig of ram, so I figured why not make this more of a comparison review as in how much performance do you gain when going from 512mb to 1gig of ram. So I put my Sapphire 4870 512mb card up against the Diamond, both are running the same core and memory speeds, so they're pretty much the same cards except for the on board ram they have. So read one to find out if it's worth it to grab the 1gig over the 512mb version card...
