Nothing's wrong with that and it did answer my question, though instead of thanking you I need to ask now if you must be a jerk?
Either help and be happy with it, or just STFU.
The HD4850 manual says it needs minimum 450w for single card and 550w for crossfire setup.
I don't know exactly what the HD4870 requires, but I'd say at least 50w-100w more.
I just got a HD4850 card, it was an amazing upgrade from my 7600GT...
A HD4870 will also require a stronger PSU, so you might want to keep that in mind, because it can cost you more than the PSU you were planning to get.
For what you described you need your PC for, it seems like the HD4850...
Do I need to do anything special to make it send signal through the HDMI out instead of the DVI? and how do I make it output the sound as well so I can then output the sound from my monitor?
heh.. yeah.. should have thought of that myslef.. :o
Thanks for that bro.
Anyway, just for the record, 3dmark05 results (same system only upgraded vid card):
1. MSI 7600GT - 4235
2. Gigabyte HD4850 - 11649
I'm pretty impressed, its nearly 3 times better, which is amazing to me. I...
I just did the add/remove programs, and didn't use the driver cleaner. I installed the new card and it seems to work fine. Just one issue, futuremark 05 doesn't work.. it gets stuck on splash screen... weird. Now I can't compare my upgrade...
I'm not a big expert and been off the loop for a little while now, but from what I do remember you can't use 2 different brands of the same card for SLI because it will be unstable or something like that, could be sync. problems...
So I don't remember the exact reason, but I remember its not...
I didn't ask before but can you elaborate a little?
I have to say I'm a little affraid of going with ATI, since my last experience with one of their cards wasn't the best (drivers & other fun issues).
Also I heard the ATI cards consume much more power, heat more and make more noise?
As I...
I couldn't find a good review comparing the two :confused: Anyway, where I'm planning to buy the HD4850 costs about $15 (before tax) more, I'm not sure if its worth it, or at all which of the two will make a better selection.
Thanks.
Edit: Both cards are 512mb.. I can add about $20 and get...
Before the situation escalates I need some advice on what would be a GREAT present/presents for her 30th B-day. I probably want to keep it within the $500 ball park, since she'll get to pick something "big" later on..
I didn't read the entire thread, so these were probably done before, and they're lame, but I liked them..
1. Zed's dead baby, Zed's dead...
2. Mark it zero!
3. You talkin' to me?!
4. I'll make him an offer he can't refuse
Easy I know..
Right on bro!
That's exactly what I was thinking, the two royal families of the USA (ehm.. Kennedy anyone?), I guess we always envied the Europeans for having kings and queens, that we sort of made our own.
Anyway to stay on topic, my guess is that Hillary will win. Like someone else has...
You should take advantage of your talent and write science fiction books.
If I wasn't clear enough, what you suggested might be a great idea for the Palestinians, but a very very bad one for the Israelies, so its not going to happen, probably ever.
I would usually be the one trying to avoid a physical confrontation, I'm not huge but I'm decent size 6'@200lbs, and if I'll seriously punch someone's face it'll probably cause some damage, since I don't really want to get arrested/sued/etc. I will try to avoid it as much as possible.
I got...
1. I don't see anything wrong about that.
2. You talk as if the president is a dictator or something like that. You are hopefully aware of the fact that no matter how powerful our president is, still he(/she) has to get approval before doing anything like that. Do you trust your congress men...
