What about this GPU ATI Radeon HD 4870 ?

Great Question. Some testing required I think.

I spent a few hours with the specs. From what I can tell, the 4870 is better than the 8800 or the X1900. I am actually excited at the possibility of running two TH2G 1280x1024 reliably. I have ordered one and will put it in one of my G1 or G2 machines. I have also ordered a G3 machine and have a 4870 coming in it.

...if it ain't broke...
gimme 5 and then don't act surprised
That's one thing that's been bugging me about the 1900, trying to get two digital TH2Gs working has always been a pain!
SourceChild: What leads you to believe the 4870 will be better? I'm interested to see what your results are, if it works I'll be after one.

Also, I have a late 2007 machine, by the looks of it I wont be able to upgrade, anyone know the reason for this?
