Well i own the Palit ATI Radeon HD 4850 also. Bought it this week for 9.2k! Totally blown away by its performance!! And guess what... My card idles at 39 deg. And 48-50 deg at massive load!! Because of my custom made free custom cooling!!
:D :cool:
Just wanted to know... I updated my driver to catalyst 8.8 today. Just wanted to are there any extra hotfixes available from ATI?

Well i guess you guys would laugh when you hear my custom cooling solution! My cooling solution is provided by crompton greaves fan running in full speed at 5!! :D :p :D
Thats coz my f@%&ing zebronics cabinet has screws with which my Asus P5Q Pro mobo doesnt fit. So i kept my cabinet lying on the ground open. While i search the whole town for bigger screws!!!
Got my 3D Mark scores today. It registered at 41434. No overclocking.

Tried Alone In The Dark yesterday & got 60Fps fixed all throughout with everything on high & HDR ON.The game sucks balls in terms of control system.It practically uses all the keys available on the keyboard.Why on earth would a button like 'Print Screen' be used for any action? :confused:

Guys, i owned asus M2NPV-VM mobo, with onboard NVIDIA 6150 and nForce 430. Can i go for HD 4850, Bcoz its from ATI. is there any incompatibility between them ?

I encountered only one VPU recovery error till now.That was only while playing Gears of War.No crashes or reboots.Infact VPU recovery prevents it your PC from rebooting on any conflict.

Got my Palit 4850 last Saturday (I'm from kolkata).

This card is awesome! With dual-slot cooler (yeah!, August import batch) - this cards idles @ 45-46 C and at load reaches max 55 C.

Can you imagine?
Cheers!

Thanks for your comments. This game was in my buy-list but now I will think again. :)

Don't think twice.The game is totally worth it & a must play.Heck I got it right when it released for the PC.Infact completed it without any issues on my 7900GT.It's only with this card, I faced some issues.I suppose the 8.7 Catalyst has some issues with this game, so upgrading the driver might help.Congrats for your card & welcome to the club.:)

Thanks.
I am concerned about the game controls mainly.

But it is creepy right? I'm planning to play at night with night-lamp on only. :D

I've already installed Catalyst 8.8.

The control system is very easy.Even a 7 year old kid would easily adapt to it.It's the usual WSAD combination for movement, space for sprint & cover & the rest if pretty much straight forward as you would get in a FPS game.

The game's atmosphere is pretty spooky.Most of the time you'll have to go through darker zones but towards the end, it's usually in a well lit up area & daytime environment.

Great! One more question. Does it has replay value?
I don't want to buy any games which I don't like to play twice or thrice !
