ATI FirePro V4800
$189.00
Released September, 2010
The Pros:Small (single slot design) and easy on the power (69 Watts on average). Easy to install, gets automatically detected and drivers are found quickly; further update drivers are easy to locate. Great performance in Rhino3d, Sketchup, Revit, PRO/E 3d models and AutoCAD while still offering some mild gaming performance.
The Cons:Tends to get really hot if pushed too hard (upwards of 94 degrees Celsius). Only 1 dual link DVI output (comes with a single link adapter for its DisplayPorts). You need to register the card with ATI/AMD to get a full warranty but the websites listed in the enclosed paperwork either no longer exist or don't have a link to register.
The ATI FirePro V4800 is a high entry-level video card for gaming and CAD work. This is similar to the ATI FirePro V3800, but has been scaled up in a number of ways to be slightly faster. Despite the changes, this is still a relatively light-duty video card and not a proper fit for hardcore gaming enthusiasts.

Despite having the physical connectors for a CrossFire bridge, this card does NOT support CrossFire.
