| Asus announces non-reference HD 4870 with 4+2 phase power module It’s two month since RV770 announcement, and many manufacturers introduce their non-reference HD 4850. However, there are still seldom HD4870s with non-reference design for the GDDR5 memory. So it’s happy to see one more non-reference HD4870 comes out, and it’s from Asus. Unfortunately, what might be anxious is the cooling system. No mention the weak-looking GPU cooler, the heatsink on the powering mosfets is too small. Since many dates show temperature of the power module can be up to 110+, Asus should pay more attention to it. http://en.expreview.com/2008/09/02/a...-power-module/
