The price of "Gainward HD4850 512MB GS" and "Gainward HD4850 1GB GS" didn't have much of a difference.

So, im going to put 1GB in the poll choice instead of 512MB ..



So the question is .. which one is better ?

Price : Performance Ratio will not be a question here as i only want to know which one is better ..



Or




Please do include your own opinion regarding which one is better whether its slightly better / a different league* much better / you can't feel much difference between them ..


I just need to know which one is the better one ..


Thanks !



p/s : Try to avoid being a "Fan boi" or else, please state that you are a "Fan boi" so i can exclude your section of the poll .

Come on guys .. stop voting without any comments .. lets hear out your words of wisdom

sob .. i don't think i can play GTA IV with everything maxed especially when my Processor is only Core2Duo !!

anyways .. 9800GTX+ can't play with everything maxed ah?

omg .. someone poisoned me ..

"HD4850 is under powered, i would go for HD4870 instead"

now the bonus questions is .. GTX260 216Core is on par with ?

but then again .. i'll only stick with two options ..

HD4850 1GB GS

or

9800GTX+ 512MB

where are you gonna find the Sapphire HD4870 1GB Toxic Overclocked Edition ?

and how much will it cost ?

anyways .. i think im gonna get myself a HD4870 ..

the only problem is which brand do i need to pick ..

guess i'll solve that problem when i have RM1k+ in my hand

btw, uzer85

Cex selling Zotac GTX260 216core for under RM900 .. normally it would cost others around RM1k++

ZzZzZ .. CF means 2 GPU Core right ? one day .. there will be one GPU with 2 Cores .. and the price will be so cheap .. all of us will cry ..

anybody know when this is going to happen ?

i bet Nvidia and ATi are laughing at us if they see we talking about 1 GPU 2 Cores ..

for now 1GPU 2Cores is like HD4870x2

hmm hmm .. so if 260 216 is at the same price as 4870 .. then we might aswell take the 260 216 right ?
