Apollo HD3850 512MB 750/2000

Got my Apollo HD3850 512MB from Newegg today.

Nice packaging, plus accessories.

I loved the Heatsink

Compare to my 6200LE this card is Small.

One problem, but can easily be solved, There is a plastic cover on the GPU as you can see in the picture. I had MCW30 GPU water block and because of that plastic it was not making contact with the GPU. This plastic can be easily removed as you can see in the following pictures.

That is one small card. Looks like it's several inches shorter than the reference boards. One thing, though: DirectX .0C?

That ship on the cover looks like the USS Enterprise crossed with one of those hovercraft vehicles from UT2004 / UT3...

Nice card too! How does it run?

It doesnot comes with HDMI Adapter, and it is alteast 2- 3 inches shorter than regular card. It runs cool, same as other 3850, like i said i checked the overclock upto 750/2000 with Riva Tuner, because ATI Control panel only let me go upto 730/1800.

But i will be running at stock speed all the time.

It scored 114 fps in LightsMark test with 1920 X 1200 resolution.
