Great Product from AMD/ATI, Others have hit allot of the Good points and also the Sparse Documentation, Just go to AMD's site there is better info on the card, and a PDF manual with More Information.
Notice:
This Card Will Work With PCI Express 1.1 and 2.0, To Clear up the poster that said it will not work with 1.1 based Motherboards.
PCI Express 2.0 Spec is Backward Compatible with All existing PCI Express Spec's 1.1 .
To make it clear, All Motherboards will except this Card 1.1 and 2..0 Alike. There is no need to update your Computer or motherboard to use this card, The Nice thing is when you do, you can use it in your new 2.0 spec board also.
If you need more information on PCI Express, Please Google it, it will explain all the Confusion some are having, i am running this card in a 1.1 Pci Express Mainboard with No Problems.
Hope this helps.

A year ago this card would have cost $500. For $175 (current pricing) its a steal. For $350 you can get crossfire up and running.
I had a X1600 Pro crossfire with a X1650 sapphire and the HD3870 single unit blows those 2 away.
It tripled my performance on many games including TF2, WIC, FEAR, Assasin Creed, Six Vegas, COD4.
The only downside is the Crysis still blows...and is not playable at anything above 1280x1024.
1 other huge bonus....super quiet!! Almost no heat or sound coming from this card.

It is worth noting that you must have a motherboard that supports PCIe 2. A lot of other video cards still work with PCIe 1.1 but this one won't. I don't think there's much warning of it so look up your motherboard specs and be sure you're compatible.
PS. I wish there was an n/a rating as I can't really speak for how it performs.
