just let the artifact scanner on while u sleep, its easier this way..
btw, when i tried 700/2200 artifact scanning, i failed in 2 secs..
it seems indeed u have a rare ocable 4850

lolz. Maybe, i only got wee bit artifact at 1120mhz. hope i got a gem here hehe.

yups, with the reference 4850 using already proven non ocable qimonda chips, u managed to pull 2200mhz stable

How will this card perform for MAYA 3D or 3dMax?

Hmm.. some very very nice story about this Gcard now.. make me to consider letgo my twin 88gt's.. hehe

don do that coz 88gt sli performance is better than gtx 280

what??? u not kidding?? my current set now can beat gtx280???

plz look at the benchmark again, most of the time 88gt sli beats gtx 280

ive done b'marking my sys with 3dmark06.. most of time i got 14k point at 1280x1024 res.. hows that? some say i should get more tahn 15k point.. i dunno lah, myb coz im using p5ne-sli mobo coz the pcie ver 1.0?

Shhh let him enter the dark side . Yup, 88gt sli beats gtx 280, except for non sli optimized games probably. If you go and get radeon 4000 series, you'll have to suffer bad performance scaling on crysis with crossfire. You're going to need a CF compatible mobo too.

What am I doing? Gah just enter the dark side .

For the first time buyers and non SLIers though, 4850 and 4870 are good choices.

dude 3dmark score doesnt reflect real word game performance la,

haha, but many games are sli optimize, so it shouldn be a prob la...

Oh i c... hehe.. but ive read some review on google, yess lot says this ati's hd4000 series is a good value+money+performance..

BUT, i reconsider my thought back lah.. hehehe

hurm haha, if u're using a single 88gt setup then yes it's better for u to upgrade to 4000series, but seeing that u already has a 88gt sli setup then, it's just not the worth the money,
but if really wanna upgrade, then u have to buy a new cf mobo, 2 x 4870 so u can cf them,
this setup can give noticeable performance increase compared to ur current setup now

played team fortress 2 for 1 hour, no hang up or artifact. I think should be fine, normally if OC over, play team fortress 2 will hang up with loop repeated sound based on my experience.

damn my only stable oc is 675/2000 only, other than that, artifact scanning fails, damn
is 4850 hardly ocable at all, or am i just the unlucky one who bought the most unocable 4850?
