Hi all. I'm currently using a stock 4850 that came with my system (bought from dell) . Its getting on a bit and is bloody noisy when i play some games.
I was wondering which graphic card would be a good option to upgrade to ? Also , is it difficult to change a graphic card (sorry no computer building experience) . |

About 500-600. Stretchable to 700 i guess
 . Prefer one that isn't over excessively hot while still delivering good perfomance / quiet.This post has been edited by Sey: Feb 6 2011, 05:07 PM |

Went for a Gigabyte 6850. So glad to be rid of my 4850.

QUOTE(F1meteor @ Feb 7 2011, 11:34 AM) woot.. what's wrong with 4850 anyway? I was using a stock version of it . Its extremely hot (70+ idle and 90+ on load) , not to mention the fan sounds like a vacuum during load. i'm using gaygaybyte 1GB OC version of 4850 2 years+ and still going strong    . Its like a portable heater in my room  This post has been edited by Sey: Feb 7 2011, 07:40 PM |
