" HIS gives us a good graphics card built around the GPU Radeon HD 4650, a radiator cooled by Zalman iSilence 4 without any fan, which ensures total silence of use. Gpu temperature has not exceeded 48 ° C during our tests. Its 3D performance are average good, especially as its main preoccupation is not games but multimedia. "

" In conclusion, this graphics card is a good surprise. It no doubt satisfy many fans of HTPC, especially if their goal is to move to HD. " - Review by Generation-NT.com

" The highest frequency that we could use without experiencing artifacts are at 665MHz core and 550MHz. An excellent result, and certainly not something we expected would be relevant in a passively cooled card. "

" With the HD4650 card you get all the benefits of passive cooling, without actually experiencing something for the side effects - very high temps. It can certainly be said to be a very successful solution that HIS has come up with. " - Scores 93 in Tweak.dk Review

" We got the first results from synthetic tests, where 3DMark06 sees HIS beat the GTX 260......The following game, HIS card’s higher clocks result in up to 5% better scores compared to the reference HD 4870, and our additional overclocking clearly proves that HIS HD 4870 IceQ 4+ Turbo has what it takes to lock horns with the GTX 260.  " - Review by Fudzilla

" The iSilence 4 cooler that HIS used on this GPU shows that it is more then capable of handling the heat out put of this card. Barely topping at 55°C and that was when the video card was overclocked.  "

" A quick glance around the internet, I seen this video card go from 100-120 USD, making the iSilence 4670 video card a perfect price for those on a tight budget but still wants to be able to play games with out sacraficing to much as far as visual quality.

" The temperature of the GPU on the HIS HD4870 IceQ 4+ was significantly lower than on the 4870 with reference cooler. The memory also was cooled a lot better.......We still feel that the performance boost combined with the excellent cooling more than makes up for the price difference.

" HIS has done a good job with the IceQ4+ TURBO model and if you're looking for a HD 4870 that packs a bit more punch than the standard model, it's a very good choice. If you're also willing to spend a few more dollars when compared to the 9800 GTX+ then it's also a very good choice with it performing better most of the time...... " - TweakTown's "Must Have" Editor's Choice

Faster " Across the board we continue to see the HD 4870 IceQ4+ TURBO performing very well against the 9800 GTX+ "

Cooler " The non-reference cooler on hand manages to make temps a little lower when compared to the 9800 GTX+ and about 10% lower compared to the lower end HD 4850. "

Quieter: " The cooler that HIS uses is excellent when it comes to noise levels with it being the quietest card here. "

" 配合IceQ 4+ 散熱器所採用的4-pin 風扇,支援自動控速機制,測試時核心閒置及負載溫度僅分別為43°C及58°C,表現不俗。此外,風扇在負載時,噪音伋然不明顯,與公版的極高噪音構成頗大對比。最後,由於此卡己預設超頻,故其效能自然比公版來得強勁 " - Ezone Review Scores 40 marks!
