Don't be too focussed on 3DMark scores too. Playability in real world apps is far more important IMO, and there's very little diff in PCIE2.0 vs 1.1 at this point.

QUOTE(amirisme @ Jul 30 2008, 11:49 PM) Hehehe. Got my 4870 babies yesterday. After get back to adelaide and upgrade my PSU can play around with it. hehehe. Then must kumpul duit buy aftermarket cooler! Why are you running Crossfire if your monitor is 1680X1050? A single card will be more than enough for anything at that res, even Crysis. |

Yup exactly. The factory overclock is worth it due to the warranty, furthermore has a stronger cooler.

Good features, but economically viable? |

QUOTE(ben3003 @ Jul 31 2008, 01:59 AM) Dunno how far can it go, the mem clock is just too low compare to sapphire one. But the 8pin is a good for oc, for me also useless la, i only got 6 pin, so the extra 2 pins cannot ulitilize by my psu lolz. For me, investing in a aftermarket cooler doesnt mean u lose. Heck, u can use it for the newer card in future probably. So, there are advantages and disadvantages. Lol no offense, but I think connecting an 8pin to your PSU will actually be suicide. The specs on that connector allow for 150W to be drawn. That'd probably fry your 12V rail..This post has been edited by zer0hour: Jul 31 2008, 05:35 AM |
