Damn you guys are demanding!
I'm home now, had dinner with the wife, she's out grocery shopping for now. Along with each card came an a component video output cable, an RCA video converter, a DVI-to-VGA converter, a DVI-to-HDMI converter, a crossfire bridge, a 6-pin PCIE to 4-pin MOLEX power cable, a CD and a very tiny user manual thing.
I'm gonna do a small bit of Crysis testing with my current 2 x 3870 config along with the 8.7 drivers before I throw in the 4850's. That's pretty much the game I want the most improvement out of, and I shouldn't be disappointed based on the scores I've seen online.
Thus, it may be tomorrow before the new cards get installed. Sorry

I'm still waiting for my SINGLE Sapphire 4850 to get here (tomorrow)...
I can't imaging having TWO. They look better than the other cards, no pictures of warrior women or such is a plus IMO. I've noticed those seem to OC better than other brands with stock coolers, some reveiw mentioned that the cooler appears to use a form of Sapphire's Vapor Chaimber. I don't really care, since mine it getting a waterblock w/in a week.
BTW was that a very early T60? Mine is middle-of-the-road PN, but mine is labled "IBM Thinkpad", not just "Thinkpad".

Well its not really the cooler, all the coolers are references ones shown and what most people have currently. Nothing special behind them. Why some of them OC better is actually related to the bios. Some of them have the 1.2V switch in bios instead of the 1.1V (reference voltage). Hench why they will OC better than others especially without a mod.
