It dont have good appearance?
Im not sure you want a good appearance cooler or one that does what it does best.

Idling at 46~47C and it comes overclocked from factory, 700MHz core.

damn cool bro idle at 35 degrees but 1 thing the rams got no cooling dats a drawback.

Unless you wanna overclock.

IMO, there is no use overcloking card anymore. Basically, most games are able to run 60-70FPS and some are able to break 100++ FPS. Only few games like Flight Simulator, Commander of the sea, Crysis and Crysis Warhead are unable to run well on 4850. However, the frame rate it too low to justify the reason to overclock it as it wont even push pass 30FPS on average. So why bother overcloking.

but the xtra framebuffer really helps for crysis,even 4870 is outbeaten at lower resolution.In guru3d also stated the oc potential of gigabyte card is quite impressive 811 core,btw i din know it was zalman cooler.

just wana ask all the sifu's here,can a 1GB 4850 run games more smoothly at higher resolution compared to 4870 512mb,as the frame buffer at 1gb is higher but 4870 is using 512DDR5,i know doesnt mean that higher frame buffer results in better frame rate,but as i c in crysis when i push the detail higher i see that the hard drive is always busy meaning that im out of frame buffer.
