i went on this (stupid) website called yougamers.com that tells you if you can supposedly run a game within playable standards and this is what it said:

Comparing your display card ATI Radeon HD 4850 with the requirement ATI Radeon HD 3870
• Your display card is slightly less powerful in raw performance

...did it really just say my overclocked 4850 is not as powerful as a 3870...? are you friggin kidding me? am i misinterpreting this or something?

(was testing assassins creed in this)

The HD 4850 is faster than the HD 3870 (17 fps vs 12 fps in Crysis for example). Don't worry about that site, they've got a bug in their program.

Most of those kinds of sites run on affiliate income anyways, so you cant trust a word you read on them.
