ATI 4850 benchmark

PC Perspective - AMD Radeon HD 4850 512MB Preview - RV770 Discovered

Wow, the mid range card is matching 8800GT and 9800GTX in Crysis. Looks like the 4870 is going to be an interesting card, I'm sure the price will be significantly less than GT280, I hope the power consumption too!

Hmm, does this actually mean that the newer ATI cards are catching up with Nvidia's? Prices seem tempting here

I think so. For the first time in about a year, I feel that it's worth buying a new graphics card

I can't wait to see 4870, especially if it's selling at the previous 3870 launch pricing! That's like half the price of Nvidia's GT280.

i haven't finish trashing the 9800GTX and now all this comes.

HD4850 should be with me next week.....HOPEFULLY!

the 4800 is impressive. single slot, single power connector, but like the 3850 it's hot! still, i think the GeForce 9800GTX might be the eventual winner due to NV's work in developing the cuda framework and they are pushing it very hard. some very impressiev applications are in the work like x264 encoding app. badaboom etc.

alot of interesting apps for the G92 family of card are coming up ( including geforce 8800 gt/gts512)

Chai · 21st Jun 2008, 05:41 PM

That is true. I hope they continue to support older cards. If only they have voltage and clockspeed scaling for G92...

This is a really good card, especially when it is priced at $199.

Yes ATI needed that price point to remain competitive with the 9600gt
