I've got HD4890 card, on Win8, latest official (non-beta) driver, and latest beta of afterburner... I couldn't get the limit to go lower than...
I'm not sure why would anything be complicated with WMP12 + W7.. I've just installed Shark's codec pack, and 64bit components as well, and all...
I just wanted to say that MPC-HC ain't "almighty" as everyone say it is.. I can play most of videos in WMP on Win 7 without using 3rd party...
I doubt it's really worth it since it will perform 10-15% better.. But if you like shiny and new like I do - go for it ;) EDIT: Disregard X1950...
boomshak - you just gave me a bit of hope :D I've ordered HD4890 and have already decided to underclock it in 2D so it is as silent as it can be.....
It's an unusual card alright.. but that's really old example :)
Ummm.. I know a LOT of non-reference ATI cards. nVidia is the one that has much more reference cards these days.. Check out cards like Gainward...
Yeah, he is crouching 100m away :D @cozee & Ati Tray Tools.. how do you mean "blanked out"? as not available? That's weird..
That OC is pretty fine. You can try lowering memory a bit, maybe your GPU will go a bit higher. And yes, you can add more voltage. I've HEARED...
And besides physics stuff, ATI has 10.1, and has on-chip 7.1 audio :)
ATI Tool wasn't updated in like 3 years. User RivaTuner or ATI Tray Tools. @quality difference, check this picture again!...
There were articles before on either tomshardware or xbit, can't remember.. They did it with PCI-E 1.0 and later on another article with 2.0....
Electro - don't worry.. if you've damaged the card you'd be in way more trouble than just fps drips ;) And yeah, a lot of effects of any kind...
Well, let's see.. While I have nowhere near the CPU power you have, I had HD4870 overclocked plus E4400 @3.2GHz all on Chieftec 450W. Power...
Let me give you a piece of advice.. Try using it with stock cooler for a few days, maybe tweaking the fan/clocks with ATT/RivaTuner. If you're...
i'm thinking the same here :D Admit it, you've felt that it clicked a little, and went in just a bit.. that's why you've tried one more time ;)...
Don't worry, your PSU is probably the strongest part of your computer.. I have been running E4400 @ 3.2GHz + Radeon HD4870 @ ~800MHz for a long...
I can't tell you that price/performance of HD4890 is better choice, or that you'll get huge performance increase. But I had HD4870 untill few...
Hey Ray! I'll be getting HD4890 probably next week, and will help you as much as I can the moment I get it. Btw, I've seen reviews of ASUS...
Well, if you Crossfire on a single card, you can check the other two threads by Torch'em here and here. Theoreticaly it should be same if you...
