The Card
The card is very different in appearance than reference ATI design cards. This one carries different Heasink.
As you can see in the picture. This cooling assembly consists of a 3 heatpipe heatsink cooled by 2 fans. 1 big fan directly over the core and 1 small one next to it.
The heatsink only cools core and does not cover the RAM. But this design is different than any other card and it’s obvious that the air from the fans directly cools the ram chips. DDR5 memory does not run very hot anyway so this should not be an issue.
The card carries 2 6pin PCI express power connectors like any other HD4870. But on this card, they are not facing side of the card but rather the top. You can also see crossfire bridge connectors there.
Nothing much to really see on the backside other than serial no and warranty warning stickers.
Now to the interesting part. Palit is the first manufacturer I have seen who has put every possible connectivity options on their cards. Its fantastic to see actually. This card features good old VGA and DVI. But to add to that it also features HDMI and DRM free Displayport connectivity. This is really nice to see on a enthusiast card.
That tiny little knob you see next to HDMI port is really interesting. It’s a switch to put the card on the backup bios. This is really interesting feature and first on any card I have tested personally. This allowed you to switch to backup bios in case you screw up the original bios while modding the card’s bios or because of any other mishap. So basically you can carry two bios files on 1 card. That’s really neat feature.
The bundle is really disappointing( all it lacks is 1 critical component ). All you get is a instruction leaflet, driver CD, single molex to PCI express power connector and DVI to HDMI converter dongle ( yes, its DVI to HDMI dongle and not the other way around. This is provided just in case you want to connect two monitors which only have DVI ports and cables. This lets you connect the DVI cable to HDMI port on this card ). The 1 critical thing that is missing from this package is the Crossfire bridge. I don’t know why would Palit decide to bundle easily available DVI to HDMI dongle and wouldn’t include very hard to find crossfire bridge ( its really impossible to find here in India ) with this card. I really hope they read this and correct this
Now Lets Void the warrany
Work in Progress 
The Card 
Thats why you can see 1920x1080 resolution in 1 gaming test. And 1 1920x1200 test was done when friend's dell landed here at my place for a day. Couldnt complete all tests that day as even this motherboard was to ship out the next day.
