Should I get sapphire, the sapphire with the black panel and heat sink, or HIS? Which one performs better and best? I believe their both reliable companies. all hd 4870 1gb versions. Also I would include the Gigabyte. If u don't know what I mean by black panle and heatsink here it is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814102801 . peace. thanks. Also should i get the gtx 260 216 core over these since it's the same price? IF u vote for gtx post a reply instead of pole. ive heard It might have better frames per second (fps) but worse picture quality. True? Or is it worse than the radeons? thanks. peace.

I have the Sapphire with the heatsinks. I have a side fan, which helps to regulate the heat that comes off of the heatsink. I have a smaller, compact case, with only 3 small fans, and mine is sitting at about 58 C idled. On load, it will hit around 64-70, depending on the game. If you have a better case, I'm sure it will be even cooler.

It's all too late I go for the gtx 260 216 core. It's overall is better in the factory overclocked version. But thanks. =]
