[desiibond]

That card looks bloated and ugly...uggghhhhhh

I wouldn't buy a card if the hasten its release with crappy drivers.

ru able to install catalyst drivers in win xp 32 bit??

and m still downloading win 7 RC1

 

[desiibond]

@himanshu, drivers for xp (included in cd) are much better but am not able to install Catalyst control center.

win7 drivers are pathetic and all games are running as if on a 8400GS. But in XP, card is much better. as I said, with my processor am able to play crysis at 30+fps when set to medium quality.

You better stick to XP 32-bit

 

[dOm1naTOr]

crysis is highly CPU intense, and so is GTA4.

im playing crysis at everythin very high except volumetric effects[high] @ 1152*864 on my 8800GT and X2 oced to 2.8Ghz.

as ur card is powerful than that, the CPU is the culprit.

 

[desiibond]

^^yes. that's true. I will get to know the real power of the card only after getting a better CPU. Tried Far Cry, getting 80+fps with everything set to Maximum.

 

[himanshu_game]

I DELETED ALL GAMES FRM MY HARD DRIVE AS NONE OF THEM running nicely on my old 7900 gs and NOW i HAVE NO GAME just 1 CRYSIS pre release demo fmr digit dvd@2007

this game is running at 32 fps @1280x960,HIGH(everything),2x AA....
proccy=q6600,2 gb ddr2 667

one question--if i get 4 gb will there be some frame INCREASE

 

[desiibond]

^^Don't worry about Crysis. It is very heavy on CPU and GPU. Try games like Call of Duty series, Company of Heroes, Mirror's Edge..

 

[desiibond]

if possible do increase your RAM but 32-bit OS recognized only upto 3.5Gb.

 

[himanshu_game]

i cant install catalyst 9.4
u know Y ???

 

[MetalheadGautham]

Yes yes yes

Manufacturer: Sapphire
Model: HD4770
RAM: 512MB GDDR5

I got tempted when I saw this card in shop and bought it immediately for 7.2k (including tax) and along with it bought VX450W.

It is massive when compared to my older HD2600XT (which I am ready to sell).

Installed the card, booted into win7 and OS was unable to find drivers online. Did a search on included CD and it found drivers.

But, User Experience Rating for Graphics fell from 5.1 to 2.0.

Looks like they released the card in a hurry and forgot about building proper drivers.

Congratulations dude.

Did you buy from SP Road ? If yes, which store ?

Now post some overclocking results .

And hey, what about that AMD 3000+ ? Thought you were intent upon upgrading when Phenom II hits the shelves ?

 

[desiibond]

9.4 is unable to recognize HD4770. am having same problem and waiting for 9.5 (release on 13th of May I think).

gives error like "your graphics hardware is not supported by this software"
Stick to XP for now (gaming on win7 really really sucks with this card, thanks to pathetic drivers)

 

[desiibond]

Thanks dude.

Yes. Bought from SP Road, Ankit computers.

Couldn't do overclocking as I am unable to load Catalyst software and riva tuner as they are unable to recognize my card.

[desiibond]

[desiibond]

nope. haven't tried 9.3. And I don't think 9.3 would work.
look at this:
