Visiontek Radeon HD 3870 Overclocked Reviews

REVIEW BY: Reviewed Mar 08, 2009

Visiontek Radeon HD 3870 Overclocked Video Card graphic card is awesome for the price! Runs mostly all games on max very smoothly with no lag. Crisis ran so well at 1680x1080 with mainstream settings, still looked great! For some reason, downloading 3870 drivers From AMD/ATI was not a good thing for me, it gave me disply driver issues during gameplay. So instead I ran the drivers provided from the disc and my system runs stable with no problems @ overclocked settings. Tiger Direct has a great return service, with no hassles. Every now and then I get bad apples delivered to me and never had a problem with TD on my returns. Thanks Tiger Direct!
