Its because your comment 404 funny not found was completely unfunny as well.

It is. I dont remember where in the menus it is exactly, though. It was buried deep in gameplay options if i remember right

Nooooooo! Love this game :(

awesome! :cool:

I also have a 4870. 6GB ram and an E7200 @ 3.8 Everything on low I probably average 35fps so I rarely even play the game anymore. Its just how this game runs on our systems

Anyone play SBK X or SBK11? awesome games if you're into bikes... ill only play full sim/manual gearing however :p

My 2005FPW just bit the dust so I'm looking to get a new monitor... price range is $160-190 with a max resolution of 1680x1050 or preferably 1920x1200. post or send a pm! thanks :)

keep the 260 and overclock your CPU to 3.4-3.6 if youre comfortable. Those two games are somewhat CPU dependant, especially L4D2, being a Source engine game. borderlands is UT3 based (afaik) which also should not tax a 260 much. what res do you play at? that might help explain poor performance...

hmm think it went like this: Radeon 7000 AGP Geforce FX5200 AGP Geforce 6600 AGP Ati X800xl pcie Geforce 7900gs pcie Radeon x1950xt pcie current: HD3850 pcie

this guy must simply be baiting... especially when he's worse than an nvidia fanboy in the ati section

hopefully it's either a MCM like the 4870x2, or an engineering sample because that is one ugly card. lol

lol :p

sometimes inadequate power from a PSU can result in lower scores. though i doubt that is the case since the 8600gt stock vs OCed power draw wouldnt be much different. whats your PSU info? try running the tests with only your GPU and then again with only your vRAM overclocked and post the...

how much lower fps do benchmarks and games receive after the OC compared to before? is it possible to run the games with at least 1280x1024, or perhaps something higher? if you can, see what kind of results you get. even if its not smooth, it will put more load on the gpu and might show you...

at that res, youre going to be CPU bound in any benchmark. youll notice higher frames with higher resolutions, though

Ahh. 50c is still alright. nothing to worry about at all. also, 3.4 without a voltage bump is very nice for your AMD. cpu voltage is the only thing you need to raise for higher clocks at this point, try it in increments of 0.05v if your mobo allows that type of control. use the program CPU-Z...

50c is quite good if its 100% load with your stock air cooling...

lol whos computer are you trying to sabotage?

they lowered the price of the 4850 to $99 because of this problem. much better deal if you ask me. might not OC as well, but plenty faster out of the box.

:D agreed

lets try this out

you got that right.

umm its really quite early to be making a decision.

anything but sapphire

kyle thought they might be high $300-mid $400

it would help in the case of AA/AF in demanding games. wouldnt notice much improvement if you have those two settings disabled, though

3850 has more features, plus you can opt for the 512mb. Better image quality and the power usage and temperature cant be beat. the 512 version can easily overclock to 3870 speeds.

i like the casing in the background. what is that? 30-06?

well if those 3dmark numbers are true... wow. thats VERY impressive! now to wait and see how nvidias dual-gpu 9800 performs. Its got 2 boards and looks a lot worse compared to the 3870 x2, so if i had to buy one of these now, it would be the 3870

haha, oh man. we got a REAL LIFE tough guy

ive got a 3850 with the same type of heatsink/pcb as your 3870. It is very simple... theres a bracket on the back with 4 spring loaded screws. simply take those out with a small screwdriver, and there should be a few more larger screws located on the edges of the pcb. Youll spot them. unplug...

youre right. enthusiasts arent that numerous either, but Im sure there are enough AGP users to justify a profit, and ATi is the only one selling to this niche market.. so they probably make good money from it.
