Palit ATI Radeon HD 4870X2 With Custom Cooling and PCB

The Revolution 700 Deluxe is an original product indeed. It uses a unique design of the PCB, an original cooler, and supports all modern video interfaces including DisplayPort. Most importantly, Palit Revolution 700 Deluxe is quieter than the reference ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2, but its cooler achieves such performance by utilizing a triple-slot form-factor. The cooler does not exhaust the hot air out of the system case, which is a downside, too. Your computer won’t like having 260 watts of heat being pumped into it. The accessories to the product are rather scanty and without any additional bonuses. It would be nice if Palit followed ASUS’ example here.

Summing it up, the Revolution 700 Deluxe is the best version of Radeon HD 4870 X2 we have ever seen, mostly thanks to its quiet cooler. However, this product is not even the fastest of single graphics cards, let alone discrete tandems like Radeon HD 4890 CrossFireX or GeForce GTX 285 SLI.
