DIAMOND MULTIMEDIA HD 4870 XOC

This card has got major problems. I and a couple of other guys have had an opportunity to try many of these out (10 cards+) and every single one had issues even at stock clocks, let alone any overclocked speeds from the 800/1100 this ships with. Claims of 950/1200 are completely bogus. Major failure on Diamond\'s part. The card ships with stock core voltages and memory voltages but receives an overclock so in order to even stabilize it 100% at stock clocks you need to up the voltages. It was not properly burnt in at the factory because they must have seen some of the issues with it right there and then. Anyway, for more info, see here in particular and steer clear of the card... http://forum.ncix.com/forums/index.php?mode=showthread&msg_id=1758013&threadid=1758013&forum=101&product_id=31578&msgcount=34&overclockid=0#msg1758013 and here... http://forum.ncix.com/forums/index.php?mode=showthread&msg_id=1762766&threadid=1762766&forum=101&product_id=31578&msgcount=32&overclockid=0#msg1762766 To anyone who wants to try their XOC BE out, I advise 1h+ of ATITool artifact free, at least 15 minutes (45 recommended) of FurMark without a crash, a few hours of 3DMark06 loop testing with triangle batch tests on, and Crysis benchmark two 99 repeat tests on high at 09:00 and 12:00. I suggest trying three speeds, 800/1100, 825/1125, and 850/1150. I pretty much guarantee crashes and/or major artifacts.
