Default HIS Radeon HD 4670 IceQ graphics card

With that said though, picking up a mid range graphics card like the 4670 is always going to be something of a false economy. Sure you save a good £30 opting for the Radeon HD 4670 over the Radeon HD 4830 or 9800 GT, but you’re getting a whole lot less graphics card and we’re certain the compromise just isn’t worth it.

Spending a lot on a graphics card might be hard to stomach, but in the vast majority of games it’s going to have the biggest impact on your enjoyment. Save a little cash now and in 12 months time you’ll be back to square one with a card that’s struggling to deliver playable frame rates with games looking their best. Spend a bit more though and you’ll get a card that should prove to be a whole lot more future-proof – just ask the GeForce 8800 GTX owners out there still happily running a card the bought over two years ago!

Priced a good £5 more than competing 4670s, (at this low price point, an increase of eight percent) offering absolutely no out of the box improvement in graphics performance over a stock card and greatly outperformed by similarly priced cards from The Green Team, it’s difficult for us to recommend this card. Sure the extra cooling is nice and so is the silent running, but at this price level bang per buck is everything - and that's just something the HIS Radeon HD 4670 IceQ doesn't deliver enough of.
