hey guys regarding on my prev post which is:
most of the sources are saying dat the 1gb has less oc-ing potential den d 512mb...the core can reach 850 easily but the memory cant even surpasses 1020(without artifacts after testing),low mem oc potential
i havent reli tested it yet...any advices? and also...i cant return to 2d mode after oc-ing with rivatuner 2.11, it maintains on the oc-ed clock speed icon_question.gif

i dont think there's major diff...usually the perf diff is noticeable at 1680x1050 or above...esp in the 1920x1200 section

the sapphire toxic has higher price? performance wise between both? temps?
just want to ask cause if in the case of 4850GS and 4850 Toxic temps wise, the GS is much lower, and 2nd in line of temps is HIS 4850 IceQ4
*
erm...infact sapphire toxic is not even available at our market yet...correct me if i'm wrong..perf wise shd be abt the same and temps also...my gs4870 idles at 43celcius and abt 60 under max load, it works fine for me...i suppose sapphire cant offer such competitive pricing as compared to gs

Hi Gainward users,
Im using the HD4870 1gb Golden Sample.
Im having problem with playing Crysis Warhead in Vista 64-bit. The game will not start in full screen. I have to go the option and tick the full screen, but whenever I restart the game, it still automatically start in a windowed screen. But then again, thats no big deal because I can always manually set it to full screen.
The real problem is, even in full screen mode, it will have black bars at each borders. Thats the case whenever I try to set the resolution to 1920x1080. Instead of giving me 1080, it gives me 1600x1200, which resulting in black bars. The lower resolution; 1024x1280, can fit the whole screen fine but who wants to play at this resolution in a 1080p monitor right? Anyone else having the same problem?

EDIT: I have tried with catalyst 8.10 and 8.11
*
i had the same windowed screen prob when i was playing warhead..but it reli isnt a major issue..but i never had the black bars issue...
as for the reso part...i tought it was suppose to be 1900x1200 for 16:10,or ure using a full hd screen 16:9
