Red Alert 1 on my 7 years old rig
after getting HD4670 together with my new rig = C&C3 and Red Alert 3
sad huh?

it's not even 450W yet, the PSU went dead with a blast at 360W
and yes, it is the Huntkey Green Star 450W PSU, with so called 85% efficiency

define what u meant by "extreme" and what is "real power"

4870 more than enough to power up a 4870?

80+ certification PSU comes with a higher price tag as well
there are some PSU out there that manage to put up to 80% efficiency but without the certification, e.g. Silverstone ST50F

read that Silverstone ST50F/FSP Blue Storm 2 could do 85% max, but on average just 80%, not bad for the price

still thinking about it, lol
cap ayam PSU can power up that rig just fine, but there sure to be other benefits of having an expensive PSU, waiting for more comments in that thread, need to be convinced
extra RM200+ requires thorough consideration from a poor fella like me

my cap ayam PSU last me for 7 years and still running
as troublesome as my current rig is, it is so darn durable and refuses to die
only the CDROM shows sign of breaking down

Gainward = Good stuffs
Good stuffs need good PSU to power them up
So it is a related topic

If Netraid does not mind that is

more room for future upgrade, ST56F has good reputation around here
and i might be getting that ST50F, although it's not really ST50F, but the OEM of it, at cheaper price and with sleeving

all the CDROM i bought can last at least 3 years, LG and ASUS
in exception for the Lite-on which my brother took away together with the Pentium 3 rig, it died in 2 years iianm
if 500W cap ayam can run HD4670, HD4350 which is supposed to be lower end (i think?) should be able to run

yup, may be getting it, i would certainly buy it now if i were in the shop now, but who knows, i always change my mind and for Huntkey, i believe that u have watched the video and read the review right?

i think for ODD it's better to stick to good brands like ASUS and LG (1st LG was in my first PC, 32X CDROM, still worked when i changed the rig), but i wouldn't recommend Lite-on and Samsung

oh, irony
actually silverstone PSUs are OEM products (not sure abt ST56F, but ST50F and ST400 are made by FSP)

hmm, did not see anyone here comparing Gainward to ASUS or Gigabyte, i see that Gainward offers significantly lower price compared to those other brands. wondering if the premium that people pay on those brands worth the performance or not

cant wait for Gainward HD4670, took ASUS EAH4670 instead

4970?
if u meant 4870, it would work but without DX10 support

4800 series are notorious when it comes to temperature, but heard cases where the card exceed that but still running fine

HD4670 is only 39 degrees at idle, lol

Gainward HD4670 is out finally
but i already bought ASUS

errr, iianm PSU wouldn't affect the performance of HD4670, if not enough juice power off straight, but HD4670 is not power hungry itself, even at load also consume abt 50W only iianm

again, correct me if i am wrong, lol
