PCIe 2.0-compliant bridge chip speeds up system-to-GPU communications. Price: $549
Radeon HD 4870 X2
You knew ATI was back in the graphics-card game when, at Siggraph 2008, it announced the Radeon HD 4870 X2 as the “world's fastest graphics card” — and proceeded to offer the test reports to back it up. While the number doesn't mean much to users in day-to-day editing, the card's ability to deliver 2.4 teraFLOPS of processing power considerably speeds 3D chores. The card combines two ATI Radeon HD 4800 series GPUs and 2GB of memory — the most in any currently available consumer graphics card.
