HD4770 Preformance

Hi all,

I've just become an owner of the HD4770 but the preformance really disappointed me.
It replaced the HD2900XT which actually outpreforms it, although I've asked on here several times if it is actually a better card. In GTA IV I see a little improvement of 2-6 fps ( OC'ed ), or when driving around the fps is the same.
The 3Dmark '06 is lower as the HD2900xt's . ( HD2900XT : 10742 ||||| HD4770 : 10600 "Non OC'd" ) My rig is shown below in my sig. Could it be the drivers? ( Rev. 9,5 )
Or is it because of CCC using at 3d-settings non-application managed AA and AF ? ( So It forces it to use 4x AA and 8x AF, which was not there while using my HD2900XT ( I guess I turned it off ) ).
overclocking goes great though, without OC'ing the GTA iV is similair/ worse as the HD2900XT.

My clocks of the HD4770 are 850/3929.

Am I doing something wrong ?

Thanks in advance

looks like Rivaturner has some poblems with reading clocks as well...

Looks like it, I'm retrying GTA IV with these settings turned off again. My specifications are listed below except the HD3200 is now Hd4770
( AMD X2 6000+ // 3 Gb DDR2 Kingston @ 800Mhz // Gigabyte mobo )

That card is being bottlenecked by your processor. GTA4 is very cpu dependent.

Look at the benchmarks for GTA4. Its a 2.8ghz X2 Kuma (which is faster than what you have) vs i7 965 using a 4770.

Thanks , you guys were right! Crysis warhead is way smoother, Team Fortress 2 stayed the same, but less fps drops ( and not so low ). CCC had such weird settings on like triple buffering and all, solid 40+ fps in GTA iV now .
Problem Solved!

I was letting that go but as you mentioned it i dont think there is an aplication caller Riva turner either
