HEXUS.net reviews Force3D Radeon HD 4870 video card
With both NVIDIA and AMD recently unveiling their new-generation graphics series, in the GeForce GTX 268/280 and AMD Radeon HD 4850/4870, respectively, as well as NVIDIA's repositioning of the GeForce 9800 GTX and recently-introduced GeForce 9800 GTX+ to a lower price-point, there's never been as much choice for consumers in the high-end sphere, with virtually every conceivable price-point covered.
