the max temp still within safe temp..

official ccc 9.5 release !!!47xx series drivers aswell

http://game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx

the release note still unavailable :I :I

All expertise here, HD4870GS vs GTX260GS s216
Which one is better?

Sure HD4870
but GTX260 perform better wif Crysis

Yippies ..... its time to get the 4770 card ....

ok, i try using the new CCC 9.5 and it seems to be better.
i still can't overclock the card, not even a bit.
try 805 for the memory and the test result was failed.


the good news is that the green screen doesn't appear anymore.
i oso could play around with the manual fan speed (not overclocking) without the green screen appearing anymore
(previously everytime i adjust the fan speed and clik apply button, the green screen appear and computer hang)

but i didn't test extensively....will try more variation tonite when i get home from work...

Something like release notes I guess.

so at wat temp is NOT within safe temp....i donnno issit my pc or me being paranoid..but i feel my pc
is like generating alot of heat!!......thnxz

sifus, i hav a question pls...

im running on Palit Sonic HD4850;

when i OC it 730Mhz core, 1050Mhz mem

then play games (such as GTA4 or other 3D games) after some time, d screen will blackout, then VPU recover comes up n then my desktop turn into very ugly 8 bit 640x480, then says cant detect my graphics card

i hav 2 reboot then only can play games again

if running on 725Mhz, 1035Mhz mem its sooo stable can play for many many hrs

I dunno if its bcoz of hot temp? or insufficient power? or my card got prob?

using stock cooler fan runs on 85%(sonic cooler ok not reference) n juice from Enermax FMAII 460W

hmmm..... i dun wanna invest in the wrong item...

I dun think u should get too upset with the outcome, i used to get similar bs with my 4850 back then. Can only oc extra 20mhz on core. But it managed to oc another 10mhz after i changed to a better psu, bu that's about it lol

is 4770 a good card?

yup better than 4830

4870 1GB can trade blows with gtx260 216 wit gtx260 216 taking advantage in more of the games.
wit high AA, 4870 1GB has the edge.

4870 512MB does not compete here.
but again, results also depends on resolution.

im sooo familiar with vpu recover...
often happend..in my case mebbe oc too much..
but i have 1 case that after vpu recover, i lower the speed..still vpu recover..but i increase it back highr prom the prev..then no more vpu recover...
huhuuh

Anyone play gta4 with 4830? i want to play that game...but donno my rig can support or not..
what proc u using? since i only athlonx2 4000+ @3ghz only...
quite hard to find reviews using gta4 benchmark

GTA 4? Triple core phenom II at least. Anything below is a no-no(high oc'ed c2d might work, but I don't know about this) Even then I play at 3.3 GHz(PhII x3 720BE here) instead of 2.8 GHz. It improves the small stuttering issue at 2.8 GHz.
