XFX Radeon HD 4890 XXX

By (goodgearguide.com.au)

Good performance, low idle power consumption, great aftermarket overclocking potential

Few performance benefits over standard ATI Radeon HD 4890, operates at higher temperatures

Despite the appeal of a factory-overclocked graphics card, the XFX Radeon HD 4890 XXX isn't worth the extra cost over the standard ATI Radeon HD 4890 reference board.

At the heart of the XFX Radeon HD 4890 XXX video card is an ATI Radeon HD...

"LIfetime" is not lifetime

By Ajays (newegg.com)

None ;

I didn't buy this card, but I bought another one from XFX. 18 months later, it stopped working. Turns out, the capacitors blew on it. Blown caps is a sign of cheap components. Now I'm plodding through XFX's "support" to get it replaced ;

Good Product

By Mr_Crusher (newegg.com)

I got this to replace a dead 8800 GTS and this card is much better performance wise. would have had to spend much more with Nvidia to get the same results as I am getting now

None at this point in time

Disappointing

By toneefresh (newegg.com)

XFX's Support was great.
