Hello all,

can somebody please post a picture of the ATI 4870 that ships with the new MacPros, preferably while it is removed from the computer?

Reason: I ordered a MacPro with that card and want to replace the cooler once it arrives (3 weeks here in Germany). However, there are many different board layouts out there, some use analogue voltage converters, others use digital voltage converters. The problem is that the digital converters are difficult to cool with third party coolers such as the ThermalRight T-Rad² (thanks to myca for the tip!). From the picture, I can possibly tell what kind of converters the card uses.

Thank you very much in advance,
Matthias.
