not sure which game ure referring too
but whatever issue u have with hd4870 crossfire
u will have with hd4870x2.

Crysis n FC2 cannot run at all, crashes on 4870 cf. Other than these 2 games, cf works fine.
I dun think 4870x2 cannot play these games hmm.gif

Yeah, i'm not the only one experiencing this issue.
http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm...threadid=101882
Could b driver or the game itself.

QUOTE(cstkl1 @ Nov 30 2008, 10:44 PM)
ok let me make this clear

4870x2 is the SAME as 4870 1gb crossfire.
u still have to enable to gpu's for crossfire option for both cores on the single card
so if they game has issue with crossfire ure still end up using only one gpu on that card.. so its again the same as hd4870 1gb.
its just that hd4870x2 is cheaper than having 2 hd4870x2
consumes less power
and less strain on ure mobo's nb/sb

ericcyl..
can u explain to him

or all users of dual gpu on single card..
please explain to this guy..

that whatever hd4870x2 is actually two gc on crossfired but in a single card solution
and whatever issue u will have on a dual card crossfire u will also have in the hd4870x2.
and his comments saying crossfire is a waste of money also means dual gpu on a single card solution also is a waste of money.

oh yeah i got the rough estimate price for the matrix
the hd4870 is around RM1200-RM1400
and HD4850 is around RM700..

so anybody interested.... this is a no gain bulk..
need five for both normally.. will be here before christmas..
will be asking taiwan tommorow..

also funny note
today czone staff made me laugh...
enqiured about a gc..
he said they sold last time.
and said they were the only one and they ordered from taiwan
idiot didnt know it was servex that brought it in...
and other than a few individual enthusiast.. ahem..
they dont allow even shops to buy from them without a account.

I still dun understand...

Any good for 4650 with 1gb compare to 512mb ddr2? Thanks.

For sure 1GB is faster than 512MB. 1GB is good for huge resolution.
Top up a lil bit to 4650 1GB u can get a 4670 with DDR3

hi celciuz, saw your sig and u are using Gainward 4850 GS with LCD with native resolution 1920x1080. i was thinking to get gainward 4850 GS too and also planning an upgrade from 19" to 24"(1920x1080). what worried me is that i scared the GC can't play games smoothly on the 1920x1080. Any 2 cents from you? notworthy.gif

Can run smoothly at Medium setting, but loggy at highest mode.
Seriously, better get a 4870 1GB if u're gonna play games at optimum resolution.

non-reference 4870 is hard to find edi
bear in mind that AC Twin Turbo is RM180
For me, I'd go for Gainward/Palit 4870 GS/Sonic 1GB.
Great cooler.

my bro almost want to buy 9800gt 'upgrage' form 8800gt....lucky i tell him NO.

like the 9800 gt rename it after 8800gt , acuatly is just same gpu. but for the newbie . will think this is next generation card and go buy . Nvidia really good in this type of dirty 'strategy' ..
