Hey guys.. i'm planning on getting an HD4870.. but i'm debating if i should get the 1GB version or the 512MB.. it's gona be sapphire either way..
the 512mb is that sapphire TOXIC HD4870 overclocked 780 and 2000MHz with improved cooling
the 1GB is sapphire HD4870 1GB 750 and 1800MHz
i was thinking of adding to it an aftermarket VGA cooler.. the thermalright T-Rad2
i want to game at minimum resolution of 1680x1050 (preferably 1920x1080) with all settings maxed now.. i am upgrading my screen now from a 17" to a 22" (and also my VGA which is an HD4850..)
overclocking is easy now thanks to the catalyst control center overdrive.. and temps will be low with the cooling system so this is good.. what should i get? what is the performance difference between 512 and 1024 and, is the upgrade worth it ?
which solution (1gb with or without cooler, or 512 toxic) would you choose ?
thanks guys
