There is already a thread running on the same topic - The Official ATI RV770 Discussion Thread which covers both HD4850 and HD4870. Its been a bit inactive recently though :(

Perhaps Shantanu could merge the two ?
well that 770 thread was for rumors and speculation and this is for the people who have already got ...HD4850 ..so i think its better separate.

whats ur OS ..??? i am using Vista ultimate edition 32 bit ...

alsoi don't use driver level AA and AF that can seriously compromise the performance .... applying AA and AF in CRYSIS is torture to ur system...

^^ Its Trojan lol :) Did u try to notice why it was doing so :p.....It was a flash file (.swf) which wanted access ! Btw its ImgX uploaded image. Take abt Trojan in Images. You made my day :D

^^ Temps are like 65 or so loaded at those clocks ! And ya u seem to doubt hw can it to be stable at such sky high clocks! The card has been pencil modded and bios modded to get the max clocks :)

so thats the trick ...!! it good to see what a HD4850 can achieve but i will not be overclocking ..since the resolutions i play at ..i might not need overclocking ...pretty much cool for all the games...

I am using Windows XP 32-bit. I usually play at 1024x768 with 16X AF, 2X AA.

i hope u have applied SP3 to ur ur windows XP ..also as i told before try disabling AF and AA and then go on higher settings ....crysis is not forgiving to AA and AF ...first disable AA and AF ..tweak around to see whats the highest setting u can play comfortably then apply AA and AF ...i hope u will get better frame rates there are many sites on the web which will give u optimum setting for CRYSIS try to follow one of that ...i hope it helps

When i don't apply AF and AA then the FPS difference is 25FPS.

see there u go "difference 25 FPS"...so try applying AF and AA step by step ..and see where u hit the sweet spot so that u can have eye candy as well as performance to play it smoothly ...:)....not even mighty gtx280 is comfortable playing it at 1680x1050 with AA/AF on ...gives only 34 FPS @ that resolution

so u can understand CRYSIS is a torture to any system ....i hope they come up with a optimized graphics engine in crysis-warhead.

@regenade: How much does the Accelero S1 cost? Also is it difficult to fix it onto this card? I have never opened up a GPU before.I wanted to get a better cooling solution for my card.For some reason it's idling to 65 degrees now which previously used to be around 53 degrees with 75% fan speed.:(
