Hd 4890 Do Your Thang By Banger on Jul 03, 2009 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Ati is a brand that has become synonymous with quality over the following years it has been rivaling it's evil counterpart nVidia and when you take Ati and put it together with another quality brand like HIS the end result is sure to end in well...quality Ladies and Gents I give you the HIS HD 4890.

The HIS HD4890 is a card that consists of 1GB of high performance GDDR5 memory which is clocked at an impressive 1000MHz while the GPU core is clocked just marginally slower at 900MHz.If you have a big enough power supply and at least x4 6-pin PCI-E connectors then you can hook two of these babies up in CrossFireX to maximize performance provided you have a CrossFireX compatible motherboard that is.

The HD series truly is ahead of it's time and is far superior to it's nVidia counterparts in terms of future technology as all the cards in HD 4000 series make use of DirectX10.1 and not only does this card have great gaming credentials it can also be used to run and perform video intensive tasks like rendering in AutoCad and Rivet and not to mention with a going price of $229 the High-end market has never seemed this close it's dare I say it almost attainable well done Ati and HIS for delivering yet another quality product at an affordable price.
