Really? My bad Anyway, getting multi GPU is bad IMO, coz you'll can never ever get 100% out of the 2nd card.

On my way Senior Member 682 posts Joined: Jan 2008	QUOTE(greatgreedyguts @ Jul 9 2008, 10:12 PM) I've read that HD4850 is priced at USD199 and HD4870 at USD299 and they have performances on par with GTX 260 (USD 399) and GTX 280 (USD 499) respectively. They also use less power. Don't mind if you state your source? According to the results from this site, 4870 DOESN'T perform at par with GTX 280 although 4870 beats it in terms of price to performance ratio.

Anwar: my plan to reduce RM0.50 sen oil price is like this ..blablabla Shabery: cannot la, Anwar, u are evil, last time u almost borrow money from international Ah long ( IMF) Anwar:Sorry, this isn't the place to counter your bashing, let's focus on the debate topic..so will study more about IPP so blablabla Shabery: U still want to reduce oil price? u see Venezuela, and Iran..their inflation is damn high laa.. Anwar: yes, but Venezuela and Iran got cheap oil price, while Malaysia have both, high oil price , even our inflation is higher.. So the conclusion is..Shabery pwned sorry, I just too excited on this, back to topic.. Anyone facing crash problem in Crysis on 4850? my fren did , and he blame me for suggesting that gc to him Wow. Interesting summary. Thx What system is your friend using?

On my way Senior Member 682 posts Joined: Jan 2008	QUOTE(OmniAtlas @ Jul 16 2008, 02:19 AM) BTW, what are your crysis settings -- I'm on High 1680x1050; 2x AA. runs at around 25+ FPS, playable but sometimes it gives me a headache when its not smooth. Thinking of turning off the AA but then it might not look so pretty? I've tried CoD4 with 4x AA and max AF (everything else maxed up) at 1280x1024 res (19 inch LCD monitor). I can't tell the difference between AA+AF and w/o AA+AF by the looks. Or is it just my eye problen? The only difference I noticed is that there is a significant drop in fps.
