^^ hell yeah they do 
AMD has a winner in each of them.
BTW, other than 4770, a cheap GTS250 would also be an option for you.

For resolutions at and below 720p, GTS250 is the best. Its NOT 9800GT. Its a 9800GTX+ which is actually a great card which starts loosing to HD4850 ONLY if you go to resolutions at or beyond 1650x1050.As I sd, I prefer ATI/AMD!
I would list the advantages of GTS250 as follows:
1. Great performance for those with smaller 720p monitors.
2. PhysX support
3. On a GF8200 motherboard it supports Hybrid Power which switches off the main GPU and uses IGP when less demanding tasks are run
4. When HD4770 is not available easily at 7K, this is the second best at 7.7K.
Disadvantages are:
1. At resolutions on or beyond 1650x1050 it starts to loose to AMD HD4000 series cards and THIS is the range of resolutions most gamers game at.
2. Low headroom for overclocking unlike HD4770 which has insane potential.
3. Low speed GDDR3 memory compared to HD4770's GDDR5 (though 128bit its better) memory.
In the current scenario, I would advice people to hunt for a Radeon HD4770 GPU which is worth buying upto 7K. If you can't find it even at 7.5K, its time to move on to nVidia GeForce.
And to all of those wondering why HD4870 512MB is the only card @ 11K from AMD:
1. Palit HD4850 512MB GDDR5 can comfortably replace that card @ 9.4K
2. There is actually the HD4870 1GB which costs 1K more. Performance is much better than GTX 260(216) at resolutions at or beyond 1080p. So its a worthy buy
3. That slot is reserved for price cuts on the HD4870 1GB once the Radeon HD5000 series GPUs come out.
And yeah btw, AMD is going on a replacing spree throwing out its HD4830 stock by converting it to HD4750 (or was it 4730 ?) with same chip but 128 bit GDDR5 memory. Great move and expected to replace HD4850 512MB GDDR3 from the market because its clocked higher than reference HD4830. Expect this to be out once AMD is sure that stocks of HD4850 in the market is low enough to risk a replacement

^^^ Great Explanation dude. Any idea when the 5000 series is coming out? I'd still prefer to wait and buy a great ATI which pwns nvidia @ the same price bracket than go for a solid GFX card nw!
@ topgear Thanx a million-trillion-zillion man! I got the mobo @ ur suggestion and the great thing is that nw I cn :
A). Play games @ a lower res with high detail settings using the integrated GFX
B). Wait my heart out for team RED to do something spectacular
C). Not have to buy because my PC wont run otherwise
D). Get great performance nonetheless!(Phenom II - Thanx comp@ddict)
Is it 896MB or 869MB???
I askd 2day @ lamington and I got 3 different people quoting the 896MB SONIC @ 11k!
And yup, can u please add some TV Tuner Card prices to this thread? I seem to notice that technology convergence is happening a lot these days as one can get a 26" LCD TV for no less than 24k, but one can get a full HD monitor @ ~10k + ~3k TV Tuner and enjoy TV as much, if not more! The record function just adds to the joyride!
I enquired at a lot of Lamington shops 2day and I cn confirm that the 4770 is officialy out of stock in Mumbai(for GawdKnowsWhateverBS Reason). Some Dude once said, "Kudrat ki leela vichitra hai. Vah hamaari samajh ke baahar hai."

@ Techalomaniac - I think ati is going to hike the price of HD4770 or those cards have some major issue ( though I've not heard any of those till now ). So they took
out all the cards from the market. If you want to wait then just wait. But the palit GTX 260 is a really good choice if you want to buy a gfx card now.

^^^If they hike its price, I'm so sure I'm gonna buy the GTX 260 @ 11k rather than go for a 4770 @ 9k or so. I'll wait and watch. Better late than never. Maybe they just clearing out the 4850's as no one would even look @ them with the 4770 performing just 10pc less and also overclocking better. Has anybody heard any official statements regarding this??? Why is it happening just outta the blue? I almost feel cheated out of a great card!
Can ne1 explain this 2 me?
*www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/a8m92/
The memory size is 640 MB??? WTH? I thought it was only 128MB sideport memory or something like that!

One more thing, I'll wait for 40nm to hit the market well and good. They are expected to run cooler and consume lesser power, aren't they? So my VX450W won't have any major headaches in the future. If my GPU chokes, which it doesn't now(even plays Fallout 3), I'll think of buying. Else I'm more than happy with my mobo!

Avatars are back!
And I hope AMD doesn't cut HD4770 price. Instead they relaunch HD4770 as HD4790 with this:
Core - 900MHz
Memory - 1000MHz(it's rated to run at this speed after all!)
Cooler - Premium Cooler
Price - 109$
India - 7.5k
Anf then for 5-6k, the HD4730 will take over, finally beating the 9600GT and also coming close to 9800GT which is primarily it's competition.

4770s have been called back? Whoa. Any idea why?
Also, why are they so expensive in india? They are $100 at newegg, and Rs7500 here :O.

Not called back, their production is low, as TMSC is still struggling with 40nm. But yields are expected to improve very very soon.
And MSI HD4770 costs 6.6k only!
