I think he's still on stock thermal paste which is damn sucky.

All using ati tray tools.. spoken too soon, no artifacts at 740 but cant even start crysis benchmark
730 crashed when half-way benching crysis. 720 is stable though

Funny that memory at 1100 is fine.. nothing abnormal yet

Here are some figures



Run #1- DX9 1024x768 AA=16xQ, 32 bit test, Quality: ~~ Overall Average FPS: 34.095
720/1050

Run #1- DX9 1024x768 AA=16xQ, 32 bit test, Quality: ~~ Overall Average FPS: 34.58
720/1100

Run #1- DX9 1024x768 AA=16xQ, 32 bit test, Quality: ~~ Overall Average FPS: 33.47
Default

As you can see, improvement is marginal at best

we need more feedbacks from other 4850 owners..

yea...i'm still on stock thermal paste....ok i'll put in new paste and see how the temp goes with stock cooler...

guys, wanna ask... which will be more important to aim for ? higher core speed or mem speed ??? my mem speed cant seems to go any higher or even at 1100, it will get artifact when scanning with ATItool. no artifact at 1080. using stock fan though.. idle at 50+C

balance out both, but core will benefit more. But if like u pump over 700 core, it will give less gain, maybe memory bottleneck edi, so u balance both lo.

yes.. i noticed that too ... 700 over core also make not much diff.. zzz
but will it be something to do with the voltage or temp ?

Core > Mem

But if you increase it too much, u need to increase the volts too if not there would not be a differences.

u guys using which version of driver? i;m using 8.8 ... after flash bios , it cant detect my card... hmmm~

For Cat 8.8, u need to manually install the driver becoz they mislinked the full installation and standalone ones.

Im still using Cat 8.7 btw.

awww.... okies.... damn ....!! i have been messing with these whole night!! LOL..
gonna try again tonight....

btw can you share your setting in RBE as my reference?? no idea where to start with..


thanks for the reply uzairi~!

You can do the fan speed adjustments thru CCC, edit the profile with notepad and save it. Im not using any fan for my HD4850 tho

Here's for the bios vmod 1.2v

yes... i have tried that. but i see thru bios u can let it run at auto right? woot.. no fan? passive cooling? hehe

weee... thanks! gonna try it later tonight...

*slurp*

mine starts to get artifacts when mem speed >= 1000!!

Slowly bro..

Btw im using DangerDen Maze 4 GPU Waterblock with ramsinks, i also added a Sunon 4cm fan to the pwm heatsink.

That's why i can run in stable at that speed

wow... no wonder... mine still on stock.. keke..
