Redefine HD Gaming

The ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series GPUs deliver a cinematic gaming experience with unprecedented performance. The powerful new TeraScale graphics will propel you deep into your gameplay with seamless frame rates and high resolutions. Enhanced anti-aliasing (AA) and anisotropic filtering create striking graphics with unparalleled realism so you can max out the settings of the most demanding next-generation games or revitalize your favorite titles. Play today while preparing for tomorrow with tessellation, support for DirectX® 10.1 and scalable ATI CrossFireX™ technology.

ATI Avivo™ HD Technology

ATI Avivo™ HD is the advanced image and video processing and display technology found in ATI Radeon™ HD GPUs and ATI Theater™ video capture processors. Specifically designed for HDTV and HD video enthusiasts, ATI Avivo HD provides brilliant colors, sharp images, smooth playback of Blu-ray™* and HD video content, HDMI with built-in multi-channel digital audio, and on some GPUs, Unified Video Decoding (UVD). UVD is designed to enable a cool and quiet media PC with low CPU power requirements and playback of HD 1080p content. HD Monitor is required for full 1080p enjoyment.

HDMI Video and Audio

A system with an ATI Radeon™ HD 4800 Series graphics card can help enhance the HD entertainment experience by providing a seamless connection to an HDTV or home theater system. With built-in 7.1 surround sound audio (AC3 / DTS ), the new GPUs and graphics cards support single cable connection directly to a compatible HDTV, projector or receiver. This single cable carries both the HD video and 8 channel audio for a clean, high definition connection. Some graphics cards will be equipped with an HDMI connector, while others will output the HDMI signal using a special ATI Radeon DVI-I to HDMI adapter. These options give consumers more options and flexibility when connecting their PCs to monitors or home theaters for maximum enjoyment of HD content. The new GPU also supports xvYCC color which can display a wider range of color when connected to capable HDTVs.

Microsoft® DirectX® 10.1 support

ATI Radeon™ HD 4800 series GPUs offer full support for the new DirectX® 10 and DirectX® 10.1 API (Application Program Interface) from Microsoft; ready to meet the demanding needs of new, next generation games. DirectX 10 is the first totally new DirectX in the last 4 years and brings important graphics innovations that can be used by game developers for the next generation of games. DirectX 10 introduces crisp, never-beforeseen detail-rich images, visual effects and game dynamics capable of accurately simulating the real world. No matter which ATI Radeon™ HD 4800 Series GPU you choose, you can be assured that games will look as good as the developer intended!

ATI CrossFireX™ Technology

NATI CrossFireX™ multi-GPU technology takes your gaming experience to the next level with superb scalability, performance and compatibility. The technology combines the awe-inspiring capabilities of multiple ATI Radeon™ graphics cards and an ATI CrossFireX ready motherboard to meet the hard-core demands of your alternate reality. New ATI Radeon™ HD graphics cards are designed with an internal ATI CrossFire™ Bridge Interconnect system to simplify installation.

You will be amazed by the dazzling 3D visual effects and have peace of mind that the ATI Catalyst™ software and drivers are designed and thoroughly tested to ensure full compatibility and stability to help keep you up and running.

Just look at all the reviews for this beast, it's still unbeatable. I am a huge Nvidia fan but this was just too tempting, Ati has finally made me a fan of their vidoe cards with this. Very very very good card, highly recommend it.      » READ MORE

 Rated by Old Ladies, October 4, 2008

This is a great card. I highly recommend you buy this. THis card can run every game out there max settings with decent FPS. I bought 2 of these and I can easily run Crysis Warhead maxed with 4xAA at 1920 x 1200. Amazing card. There are a few weaknesses but those can be fixed. The card used to run hot so I just edited a profile and now have the fan at 45%. Now the card never goes above 70c. Although the biggest downside is warranty because no ATI partner allows for after market cooling but you wont need it for this card.      » READ MORE

 Rated by Methyl, September 30, 2008

Overall, this is an amazing card. Games have never looked so good, or played as smoothly. It was a huge upgrade over my aging 1950GT. The only downsides are, at this moment there are no ATI approved methods of raising the fan speed, and in turn lowering the ridiculous GPU temps. An idle of 70+ degrees is not acceptable. A quick Google search, and you'll find there is an answer to the above issue. Still, ATI should have done this themselves.       » READ MORE

 Rated by Tony_M, September 6, 2008

This is a great card. It's got wicked-fast performance and despite the huge cooler it runs very quiet. Forget about the fan-fix: the card is rock solid running at 80 degrees, there's no reason to run it cooler unless you want to OC or have some desperate need to hear the fan spinning all the time.      » READ MORE

 Rated by Derrick_P, August 31, 2008

I bought two of these cards and have them configured in a full 16x Crossfire configuration (you'll need a motherboard with an Intel X48 setup for this) and the performance has blown me away. I was playing Bioshock with all setting maxed with no lag while a daily virus scan was running in the background. Considering two of these will destroy a single Nvidia GTX280 card for about the same price, I would very highly recommend them, and even if you can only afford one, it will still outperform a single Nvidia GTX260 for less than the 260. These cards are the best performance for the best price!      » READ MORE

 Rated by Hairless, August 22, 2008

Overall a great card, upgraded from a 9800 pro so I saw quite a large performance increase. Card needs a fan fix out of the box, default was 22% and ran at 80C idle, now is at 35-40% and runs at 50C under load      » READ MORE

 Rated by stoanee, August 21, 2008

I was expecting killer performance but I did not get it. My 8800GT scored 13500 in 3DMark06 and this card in the same rig only scored 1000 more points. For the price it is a good card but I was expecting 15000+ for a score. It games very well and I have not had the driver issues that I had when my 8800GT was new. Hopefully as the drivers mature the performance will pick up.

Bought this card 1 month ago, and i have to say that this was an awesome option when thinking about price:performance ratio. It's very quiet, but someties it seems pretty warm. Overall, i would definately buy this card again in a couple of months for crossfire.      » READ MORE

great video card, quite a bit difference compared to the 8800gt and 8800gts, more than double the fps with this ati 4870, nice colors, has a nice look to it, for the price cant go wrong, only i think its not as crazy as i expected from the top of the ati video cards, only way to top it is crossfire them      » READ MORE

Amazing card. Upgraded from an POS 8600GT to this, and the performance increase is awesome! Plus on top of all that it shipped in like half a day from when the payment cleared!The only downside is that I have to play all of my games on a 17 inch crt because my bank wouldn't allow me to buy the 22in lcd that I wanted because I have to wait 6 days for my check to clear:(      » READ MORE
