I bought a new graphics card the Palit HD 4850 512MB GDDR3. I have a Zebronics 500W platinum series PSU with 22A on the +12V rail. The card plays all the games satisfactorily except Crysis Warhead. At 1024X768 with all settings set to minimum I get only 20-30 frames and this sometimes even decreases to 15-20 in graphics intensive places. How can I solve this problem?I have a Phenom X4 @ 2.2GHZ and 2GB DDR2 800MHZ RAM.

I also have another doubt. In the game assassins creed I cant access the multisampling option at 1920X1080. At lower resolutions I change this, but at the 1920X1080 it is grayed out. Please help me out!!!!!


Also do you think I can OC the card wit this power supply? How much should I OC it?

Only 1 22a rail?
I wouldnt overclock anything with that power supply.
First problem is you only have 2gb of ram, thats not enough.
Second problem is your processor speed is bottlenecking your video card.
I would get 2gb more ram and overclock the crap out of that processor or get a new one.
