Hi guys!
I just wondered if i buy the superoverclocked version of 5870 from Gigabyte than if i buy the standard 5870 who isn´t overclocked , which card will hold longest?
 
The overclocked card will technically not last as long as a stock card, but the difference is negligible and so long as there's nothing wrong with the card, it'll be junk before it dies. Having said that, don't get the superclocked version. Save $30 and do it yourself, it'll hardly take an hour to do and you'll probably have fun while you're at it.
 
Wow this sounds great didn't know gigabyte released a superclocked version i have the original 5870 from them might have to investigate this more. :)
 
I can't speak on the behalf of "Doggysty" but its possibly because 6/8 months ago the 5870 was top of the line along side with the 5970 and that they have come down in price since then. I Think the 5870 is a truly great buy.
