My new Sapphire HD 6870 GPU

Post by Tchernobog »

So after seeing all of the glowing coverage that the Radeon HD 6870 was getting with the Linux FOSS radeon drivers on Phoronix I finally broke down and found myself a good deal on Kijiji that got me two Sapphire HD 6870 graphics cards for just $125.00 CDN.

Zoya has never looked so good.

I have had to forgo one of my two heads for the moment, but this should hopefully get me up and running again in no time:

For what it is worth my VGA to DisplayPort adapter came earlier this week and everything seems to be working perfectly.
