Hi..

My parent just bought their Samsung LCD 40 inc 555 series.

Previously i have done a configuration for them on this HTPC . but i though of change the GPU since it majority
use for internet browsing , youtube, online movie (pplive) , watching DVD or ever BD movie ,

I want to use the LCD HDMI port , so the GPU must come with HDMI as well...

Can anyone recommend a LCD TV favor of ATI card for me ? I plan to use silverstone SG-01 casing but i think it can put standard size of GPU on it.

My htpc setup

Really need some experience people to advice on this.. blink.gif
*
if intense gaming is not your cup of tea, just get any cheapest GC which support the max resolution of the TV.
that is pretty much good enough.

as for HDMI, it dont matter much coz usually GC will bundle wit dvi to hdmi converter, of u can just buy it for few bucks.

promise myself only to upgrade once every 2 years
when i see the 4890 now ph34r.gif  really wanna just grab it

gonna see how the 5 series performance, if they can still lead Nvidia in mid range class
*
i wont upgrade till @ least GT300 came out.

i wan 2 see comparison & my sense tells me GT300 gonna perform better.

coz evergreen is more of a die shrink + improve architecture.
plus, nvidia will go wit 512 bit + DDR5, dats hell lot of bandwidth.

i hereby denounce Nvidia as my saviour and offer my soul to the eternal clutches of the dark side

my 1.5 years gigabyte 8800gt turboforce finally yielded to the dreaded faulty qimonda memory however much i downclock the memory.  So I  just bought a xfx 4850 xxx 512mb as its replacement.  yes, not much, too late.  But i just looking for a budget and better replacement, and its great.  Got it for RM380 at thundermatch.

i love this xfx's cooler, it runs cooler than my 8800gt on AC Accelero S1 rev2 idling at 45 while 8800+AC at 55.  After more than 3 years of leaving ATI, since 9500 came out, has to readjust again.

Currently trying to figure out which temp is which in rivatuner by comparing it to CCC readings.

fot ATI card, use ATT.
much more options to play wit.

what really is the use of underclocking the card?
temp wise? power consumption?

underclock like that, u can play what game?
*
temperature wise u can see from the picture, its @ ~40c.
dats is the lowest temp i can go considering the room temperature here (no air-con).
cooler is a moded twin turbo.

i hav set up couple of profiles.
this "super idle", is loaded during startup.
use it for normal surfing, dl, of watching HD movies.

few other profiles include:
normal - stock setting
gaming - slightly OC
OC - max OC

using ATT, changing profile is as simple as a click of a button.

guys, i got my card back from RMA - its a Powercolor 4850. Apparently they didn't change the card and the  shop told me the supplier fixed the card already.

f***, after installing everything I tried all the games which showed me the atimkdiag error and also produced artifacts, grid was problematic as always, crysis still artifacts like hell.

I believe that either the shop or the supplier is playing tricks on me. I called up the shop, and they ask me to bring the card back to them for testing, I am sick of this man, any idea on what can i do next ?
*
i bet dey test it demself & dint even sent it 2 distro.

i suggest u RMA through distro.

dis is 1 of the latest review of gtx295 that i can find.
in the comparison, 4890 & gtx275 is also in the mix.
http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/graphics/...tx-295-review/1

4890 is actually winrar in most of the cases.

Dont worry 5xxx might be 2GBx3 (6GB)

actually u dun need so much memory.
u can see nearly no different between 4870 1gb vs 4870 512mb.
only few frames max.
differences are more obvious once AA & AF are pump up.

Wikipedia says HD 5870 coming out September 10th!?
Possible, seeing as Windows 7 is a little more than a month after that.

Besides, Wikipedia has NEVER lied to me. NEVER.
Also approx price for that is RM899.

can giv the link?

it is tradition dat the xx70 version launch @ $299 & xx50 version @ $199
