QUOTE(Joseph Hahn @ Nov 3 2008, 10:47 AM) Just recently bought a Sapphire 4870x2 and coupled it with Viewsonic VX2835. I came when i played UT3. I thought you weren't for real. Good card huh. I'm waiting for non-ref cooler (then at least can try and pwn gtx280 at games which are not crossfire optimised  Previously used a Sapphire X1950GT with Acer AL2216WBD.   ) |

QUOTE(LeechFever @ Nov 3 2008, 01:02 PM) Ever wonder why if setting it up to 50% is better, why don't they just default it? I mean for (rich)beginner they might not know this at all and blow their money on coolant that does as good as 50% fan speed config. Very much similar to my casing fans noise. At 50%, my card idles at around 60C. At default, it's around 70C. At 100% it's about 50C but the noise is probably louder than a vacuum cleaner. Wore out Ball bearing maybe but that just short live their warranty. Not good for business. Possible the noise? How much noise?  |

Not worthy if 4830 for about RM500.
If OCed 4830 to higher than 4850 also stability is an issue. |

at that price...prolly the best idea to wait for it to drop...surely it'll drop even more when 4850X2 is out...

Palit 4850 Sonic's heatsink is exactly the same as 4850GS. Just that the cover design is different.
But at stock 700/1100, yes there will be no difference at all in the performance. |
