HD 3870 Ultimate Edition by AMD and Sapphire
The HD 3870 is still a very capable card, and with the popularity of the Intel chipset Crossfire is a more likely dual GPU setup then SLI.
The only real problem with the Sapphire HD 3870 Ultimate is its lack of visibility in the retail channel. You might have to hunt quite hard to find a unit to purchase.
The HD 3870 continues to be a great card, but it’s probably something worth picking up second hand these days instead of being a brand new purchase. If you could hunt down the Ultimate version from Sapphire, go for it.
