ASUS, producer of top quality graphic solutions, has today unveiled the latest generation of AMD GPUs – the world´s first on-board dual RV670XT, with the ASUS EAH3870X2/G/3DHTI/1G and EAH3870X2/G/HTDI/1G. The EAH3870X2/G/3DHTI/1G comes equipped with the fastest upgraded DRR3 0.8ns memory modules and two exclusive extra DVI outputs. It also comes specially designed with dual fansinks for both GPUs – ensuring efficient heat dissipation. On top of all this, the ASUS EAH3870X2 Series will also come bundled with the hottest DX10 game, Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts.


Exclusively Designed Hardware Features
The EAH3870X2/G/3DHTI/1G comes equipped with the fastest upgraded DRR3 0.8ns memory modules, and harnesses the high speed capabilities of these super fast memory modules for the best performance. It is also exclusively equipped with two extra DVI outputs for a maximum of four-display video outputs. Additionally, the EAH3870X2/G/3DHTI/1G utilizes the specially designed dual fansink that effectively dissipates heat away from both GPUs – enabling much more stable performances in comparison to reference designed single fansinks.

Sweet. ASUS products are wonderful. Unfortunately, this will be ATi's flagship card for the rest of the year.

Pretty nice card, I have to say. 4xDVI ports is also pretty nice, and the Asus one looks badass with its monster sizing and badass heatsink. Do want

Where the hell am I suppose to put my Network, Video Capture, and Sound card?.

Most of these new Motherboards only have 2 PCI slots and 1 PCI Express slot. This card pretty much takes all those. Man, these mobo or vid card makers need to start thinking about that.

Lets us know how it go.

Can you have two together in crossfire?

When I read 'onboard' I thought it was integrated onto a motherboard. And I was wondering who would want that. This looks much better.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but would two of these cards in Crossfire outperform two HD3870 cards in Crossfire?
