crossfire in my case will 4850 and 4890 crossfire and give me extra performance. I im planning on crossfire with my current Ati 1gb 4850 what would be the best crossfire in my case will 4850 and 4890 crossfire and give me extra performance You need to use two...

2 4770's +1 for Fullmetall's list. Since you've already got a HD 4850, it makes more sense to just buy a second one than to throw it out and buy two HD 4770 cards. HD 4850 Crossfire and HD 4770 Crossfire are very close in performance. The HD 4850 should...

there on high ok then, I guess what ill do is ... add a 2nd 4850 on my machine... Illl prolly need a bigger power supply... but Ill also look into the whole "crossfire" and see what performance gains I will get out of having 2 of the same cards......

results get very skewed is in the Crossfire performance. The gtx260 SLI will generally trade blows or beat the AMD 4870CF; I really think 4870CF is very underpowered as a dual gpu setup comparing it to its single gpu performance. If you want a great scaling...

perfect 22 monitor and 4850 is the perfect GPU for them. 4870, 260, 280 are nice but they are overkill and more $$$ ($150) than you need. I have a 8800GTX but i gave it to my sister so i need a new GPU,also HD 4850 wont be a big boost for me. Also i like Crysis...

per ramp. Esop! Power consumption: The 750w psu is definitely enough for single 9800gx2 or dual 4850, likely dual 4870 too. At the prices you cited, 9800gx2 is the best choice. The performance gain in 4850 cf is not nearly big enough to justify the...

strength, something not found 2 gens ago I meant 9800GTX sorry :D Yeah, this is some really good information. People think we're getting less of a performance increase in this generation, but they forget that our SLI/Crossfire is a lot better than it used...

Vista 64-bit crossfire is a waste on 1680x1050 - at that res, a 4870 1GB is enough. My rig: Q6600 OC to 3.6Ghz 4850 crossfired Stock speed - I dont see much performance gain on 1680x1050 - but at 1900x1200 framerates do make a huge jump. 3Dmark06 single...

to 4870 pricing; 2) see what progress is made on drivers/bio/heat issues; and 3) see what kind of performance is gained with new factory OC/heatsink models. For example, some are now hitting: Good luck! gtx280 is fine at 499$; if you don't want the top performing...

now, buy the heat sink later. If I were you, I would get 2 4850 in crossfire. The price is about the same and it is about 11% slower than 2 4870 in crossfire. You cannot go wrong with these ones. As Shortstuff points out, the speed gains you will get...
