hmm...my motherboard software having the same thing as well....><...

hmm..a bit skeptical..now...scare..it will fry my PSU... considering to let go the gc if i get a good price..

yeah.......since i slot in the card..PC Probe( Asus motherboard software) is giving me few error...i leave my pc on and afk most of the time..so is kinda dangerous don't you think...

I opened a thread in the Garage Sales...if the price is acceptable then i will sell it...but as of not...is not that good..best price is 560.... gonna sell it if anyone offer me 580+...

if you want to switch then make haste...someone is willing to trade his 4870 with 4850 + top up..

hey..1 more thing is SilverStone ST56F (is it real power?)good enough for 4850GS even 24/7? Considering to get used PSU...if can't sell my gc....

even you sell out your 4850.. i doubt you will get a decent price...they will just chop you...no hard feelings..that's what i get.... so i decided to sell my current PSU + a bit of cash should be enough to cover the new PSU..

sry..mix up the info with anther ppl..

yeah...even the Huntkey is cheap compared with other brand....the safety feature a main concern...

i just gone to AMD support website and Gainward is not even in the gc list...kinda weird....dunno how to register my gc..

you could check in this website http://ati.amd.com/products/certified/powersupplies.html

well.. maybe i should be more specific on my question... i intend to leave my pc open for couples of months...is the PSU able to survive that? I doubt my current PSU would...

errr.. my Cooler Master 450W is real power as welll..but is giving me error message (PC Probe and HWMonitor)when i leave it overnight...somemore already downclock it to 500mhz...so what comes into my mind is long hour will stress up the PSU no matter how much watts you are using...

i lost the error msg.. but i remember HWMonitor.exe for 12+V rail the min value is 0.06V...and PC Probe alert on the Voltage.. the following is the log (PC Probe)...

how to test is a faulty PSU ?never encounter this problems before i slot in the gc..

hope is the electricity unstable...gonna try it tml night...going to sleep soon... ain't there anyway to test the PSU out but leave the sparks from coming out ?hmm the PSU is still under warranty...but what i am gonna use..if go RMA..for few months....

Hmm... as mention in the previous post .. when the PC using ATI 4850 is idle.. the power consumption is 300W and Cooler Master 450W, +12V Rail max power is 296. From the ATI requirement, the card will need 100W.

As for me, after slotting the card...my CPU VCore voltage is not stable...first time drop till 0.06V. Yesterday jump to 4.0V+ .. (using Hardware Monitor and PC Probe). Weird thing is my pc did not restart...kinda lost..some website would said..is just a software, not reliable...

well different brand different output..like mention earlier..SilverStone PSU 500W can draw power up to 598..but after that KO... i just hope that my CPU VCore voltage fluctuation won't not damage my hardwares...

if i am not wrong the gc is taking power from +12V Rail...so power consumption should be based on +12V Rail only

well...better bring a digital camera or DSLR....handphone camera need to really go very close to take pic....that would most probabily scare the chicks away.

Netraid is supplier...he don't attend to single sale....
