QUOTE Price alert, Sapphire 6850 & 6870 priced at 599 & 740 (Cash price) respectively at Lowyat. Stock should be available this week or probably now i think. It's a fair price i believe, but i gonna wait for the custom cooler version. 6850 at 599 is reasonable |

i was hunting for eVGA GTS450 FPB. all shops nil stock except the more expensive superclock version at RM499. finally got myself a Sapphire HD6850 from Cycom at RM600 (cheapest in LYP). Most shops are not selling sapphire. even if they do, it's about RM650. gigabyte and asus are widely available. some even quote me RM720. wanna chop my head
  temperature as reported from GPU-Z... idle temp: 48C load while running 3dmark vantage: 68C the card is very quiet as compare to my friend's 5850. cooler too. i'm running it on my puny Acbel iPower 450W PSU.  This post has been edited by Skylinestar: Oct 23 2010, 09:13 PM |

QUOTE(8tvt @ Oct 30 2010, 11:42 AM) look on 6850 cooler.. it's not like normal ref cooler.. please check my posts a few pages ago (posted on last saturday) and i think it's not making noticeable noise.. how fast the fan when idle/load and the temp?  i've no idea about the rpm, just the percentage value as reported in overdrive. |
