I'm running 4870 1GB also. Even though this is an older card than 5 series, tends to get better performance than 5870, 5770 etc. Look at passmark results. Should perform very well on the low\med settings.

The only thing, im having problems getting the AA to work, in catalyst control and in the game settings, i have heard a few other people saying the AA is not working for them, i will take a look at the other threads to see if there is a way to force it etc.

Thanks

Our card keeps pace with a lot of the newer ones, and ive only a 512 model

Personally, i experienced an about 10-20 FPS less with AAx8, comparing in no AA. But i didn't see any graphic improves. I even found that my graphics were better without !! (looking at the glass roof's structure...) So obviously i deactivated it too..

4870 seems to be a very good middle aged stuff, i found some benchmarks that were using it as a reference (even if it's outclassed now by new cards...)
