Yes second batch is way better.

My old one: Idle 52C Load 80C
New one: Idle 32C Load 60C

And no artifacts anymore. I wonder how much Gainward will improve for the 3rd batch.

If you watch Gundam Seed you sure know Lacus Cline is a good person. So many people willing to die for her. Well, Lacus LYN is male right?

You can try the Vantec PSU use by Desmond1310, the 550W should be below RM250. I saw the physical unit and it has solid build and nice sleeve cables.

If you got extra money maybe you can buy other reputable PSU such as Silverstone, Corsair (VX series is very quiet) ...

Guys, i just got myself an Gainward 4850GS from a forumer here..
It's 2nd hand but still quite brand new coz it was purchase like last month or last 2 months ago i think..
Anyway after receiving it i had a few probs with it, when installing it was no prob but everytime i tried to test its stability using 3dmark vantage it would load the jane marsh bench halfway thru then the computer would restart..
I tried a few times already... I install n uninstall drivers like a few times already..
I always notice that about haf way thru load there would be some artifacts appearing before my pc restart..
Sometimes after the restart at the desktop would appear some artifacts which would go away if i open up a window or something..
I tried downclocking the gpu n it's still the same but when i downclock the mem to 1ghz only then it would run the test stabily..
Is this normal for a GS?? For your info the GPU heatpipe is copper..
Please guys need help here..
Thanx for ur help n time.. smile.gif

Did the windows display "the graphic driver has failed and has successfully restored" <-something like that? (in system tray)

@king99

How you set AF for crysis? In game only have AA. Is it using the CCC to force AF?

4870GS should be able to run all games without problem unless you play at very high res and very high AA on certain games like Crysis.

I'll keep my 4850GS and maybe I go for a 5870GS next year brows.gif

Will there be any more revision of 48xxGS series from Gainward?

I noticed mine has nickel-coloured heatpipes, this means I'm safe notworthy.gif
PS- Does Gainward include any type of stickers (ati, or their own company) in their retail GS Box? I got VGA + 6pin->8pin converter + vga->dvi converter and some quickguidepapers and drivers CD.
Some kind of sticker to put at the front of the case would be great dont you think so?

No stickers. But you can cut the box logo and stick on your casing smile.gif
