I now have a normal Gainward 4870 512MB with the original stock cooling.
But "Santa" :santa: brought me a Gainward 4870 512MB Golden Sample.
1. These 2 cards probably work in Crossfire, or :confused: ?
2. Is the golden sample's cooler more effective than the original one? (I'm wondering how much heat it generates. Because the GS doesn't push the air out of my case like the original stock cooler, but it has dual fans.)
3. Can I plug monitors into the both cards the same time in any mode or something? (I'd like to plug my TV to the HDMI in the GS. And I already have 2 monitors plugged into the original 4870 DVIs.)
4. Can I adjust both fans in the GS?
I don't presume anyone has time to answer these in the next following days. But I should decide till 12/29/2008 should I keep the GS or get a different one?
But a big thanks to everyone that can help me. I'm trying to google the answers too, but I'm not very clear about this.
