These cards seem to take the heat well. Also the 4850@800 core and maybe 1200 memory is still a fast card. Also I am not looking for top performance, but bang for my buck and thats where I see the 4850. I guess lastly it will be more fun to bench the 4850 then the 4870. Not in terms of score, but fun in general. =)
Completely agree with you there! The 4850 is a ton of fun pushing it to the wall, and it's fairly cheap by itself. Hell, they ran a $150 deal a few weeks ago on it... Talk about a steal.

My temps were in the high 60Cs, low 70Cs at 1.4v. Topped out at 1125 memory on all cards @ 2.2v, didn't want to push it further.

Had to stop playing with them to focus on the 4870 volt mod tests.
