    its going into the AMD system cause i just cant stand the Q6600 i dunno why but to me it seems slower at loading simple things. but mostly because i want an all AMD system so it will be great in the AMD system.

    nice very nice!!!!tell my performance results tomorow!!!:P

  3. godseesnocolour says:

    ok i will keep this link under favourites. i will probably have a 3dmark06 score cause i dont like vantage much .

  4. JOHNAKOS007 says:

    with this card belive me you gona like it!!!!xaxaxa xd!!tell me tomorow if you can!!bb

  5. godseesnocolour says:

    lol i hope so i hated my last ATI card 3870 it wouldnt stop buzzing and the drivers were so bad.. i was going for the 9800GTX but that was broken to.. but i just had confermation that its been despatched and on the way YAY!!.

  6. JOHNAKOS007 says:

    do you get it???

  7. godseesnocolour says:

    YES I DID!! and WOW.. i just put it in did a score without anything OC'd got 11,042 on 3dmark06 then i OC'd my processor only to 3275Mhz and the score jamp really well to 11,822 this is high considering the tempreature of the card and no OC on card. i wont be over clocking it yet im waiting for rivatuner to support it so i can crank the fan speed up to 100% even with a temp drop that should give me even more points!!

  8. godseesnocolour says:

    p.s my last card only got me a total of 9,646 3dmarok06 points and that was overclocked to max and so was the processor!!.

  9. JOHNAKOS007 says:

    very nice 11,042 whith a dualcore processor….but be careful if you overclock it because the card has very high temps at the stock clocks…

  10. godseesnocolour says:

    thats exactly why i wont be overclocking it till rivatuner support it.. i would find it to dangerous.. so im made up with my 11,822mark so far i finally beat my Dell XPS lol. when rivatuner supports it i will have better marks and i will push my processor to 3300Mhz just for a little bit more of a push.

  11. JOHNAKOS007 says:

    ok very good my friend..how much the card???

  12. godseesnocolour says:

    well its £179.99 here in the uk but i got it for free because when i bought the 3870 it cost me that price and it broke a few weeks ago sent it back and eventually got this as a replacement.

  13. JOHNAKOS007 says:

    omg thats realy nice!!!here in Greece it costs 260 euro…and 165 euro fore 4850!!!

  14. godseesnocolour says:

    you know thats probably cheaper than the uk.. 260euros i think is quite abit cheaper. yes the UK is currently a very expensive place to live everything is being taxed around 10times the original tax amount.. due to the goverment messing up. a bottle of coke is now £1.50 to £2 in some places. lol i guess the ATI 4870 is still good for the price.. it beats the GTX260 and that costs £330!!.

  15. godseesnocolour says:

    and im on about the small bottles lol haha right sorry i gotta shoot im helping a friend do up her orange 1972 beetle its amazing car!! its so hilarious to be in.. chow!!

  16. JOHNAKOS007 says:

    ati is back for 330 euro my 2 4850 beats the 280gtg that costs 550 euro…..ok then bb!!!

  17. luanswan2002 says:

    Lol dude a 4850 doesn't beat a gtx280 haha.

  18. ninethings says:

    Not always, but sometimes, yeah it does.

  19. SilentManSk says:

    not in benchmarks maybe… but find me a gtx280 under $500 that can beat 4850 :D

  20. Greenmin5 says:

    There's a fix for high temps for the 4800.
    message me and ill tell you

  21. revandisturbed says:

    4850 can'tbeat gtx 280 but 4870 in some cases can do it

  22. JOHNAKOS007 says:
