hey sifu's . is this card good?? HIS HD 3850 Iceq3 512MB DDR3 PCIE..

im planning to join the " DARK SIDE " . issit able to play prostreet at highest settings without any lag?.. say 40FPS > ? im using 1024:768, details of my rig can be seen on my siggy. im planning to get one soon... before CNY.. the dark side is tempting .. .

PS: can it play Crysis ? . what are the playable settings ? that are 30FPS>

@zhenwei . will consider buyin 3850.. not enough for 3870.. i doubt theres much difference.. right?.. just the DDR4..

the only thing i worry about is that, the extra power its gonna need... i dont have a 6pin cable for it... i used it for the mobo... mine lousy psu 450watt.. lols... no money fork out a good psu ._.

a good psu is costly... really really costly... few hundred... wait til mine die then ill go get one... or probably when im rich .. haha~

waa, anyone here wana sell their 3850/3870 iceq..? .. i prefer 512mb.. hehe... im in low budget as i need to get a psu oso.. ST400. haha~

no, im just a student , i doubt ill upgrade anything more ..im not hardcore gamer, just like to test new games, thats all =)

wah.. 450watt not enough ke bro?... aiyo... lke dat i think i no money get 3850 lo.. till nex year

omg. haha. any PSU u recommend? i dun plan to get quadcore/SLI/XFire.. im not serious gamer.. will probably consider when i am working.. im still sec 3. PMR tis year lagi.. well, i dun quite enjoy nvidia.. so any PSU u recommend that has true power? .. i dun plan to go for expensive psu... i think 500watt enough eh?.. i will stickwith my rig for till i work.

well im in SMK . ST columba. .. .. hahaa~ offtopic jor >.>~ isnt the ST400 good enough to power up a 3850 iceq3?. none crossfire??.my mobo dun support xfire.

lol, university arh,... my mum wants me overseas... probably might sell my desktop .. and get a gaming laptop..but thats a long2 time.. offtopic again.. . so what do u recommend? how many watts should i need? .. ill look for silverstone psu's.. i heard the st400 is the best price and truepower too?.. 165 is alot for me.. >.<~

miri got pc enthusiast shop meh? .. dont think so.. miri shops alll VERY limited items, in kl selling 3870.. here selling 2400 at RM 400...

lol my 8600GT was shipment. most of my stuff are actually , just have to find a reliable seller eg : high posts/joined a long time ago. i bought my stuf from boss moderno, reliable and fast service. he sells quite alot.. sorry.. offtopic till advertising

hmmz, still thinking whether i shud get the 3850 or shud i just wait for RMA for my 8600GT( i prefer ATI) ... really confused~!

why would any1 want to do that? lols.~ isnt the 3870 faster? ..
