Didn't get a chance to. One notable feature added to CCC is the manual fan control through a slider
but why is it almost twice the size of normal drivers ....whats so special about them ...??

Hi
bought Palit hd4870 Igb dual sonic for 21k palit with its dual cooler and multi ddisplay support makes this acrd awesome. also the dual bios feature rocks. the card is even 1cm small in length to stock ati which helps in mainboard installation
latest prices as checkked from whole seller at lamington
4850 512 9.5k (palit)
4850 13500 (palit)
4850 1gb (msi) (14.5 k)
hd 4870 512 (plit))(15k)
hd 4870 sapphire (512)(18.5k)
hd 4870 1gb (palit) (21k)
i would recomend palit cards for power efficiency and cooling solutoions. almost all reviews of them are good
this prices are subjective as radeon 4870 1 gb is hard to source. if someone has good contacts i feel u can get 1gn 4870 at around 19k

thats an awesome buy Palit 4870 1GB sonic ...its almost gets u close to gtx280 (sometimes equal to it ) performance ....
and i agree with u about palit being better and cooler than other cards its same with even plain HD4850 ..even they run cool
i have a question though u mentioned a palit Hd4850 for 13k ..is it the sonic model ?? that is HD4850 sonic ? so far i was not able to confirm if its available in india
even plain HD4870 at 15k is awesome buy ...
In the next two years, we will see many new generations of gpu cards and even memory!

yes its a sonic version. though get it from a reliable dealer in lamington. i do recomend cassete world. just waiting to assemble my rig as my maximus 2 formula is about to arrive tommorow. i know 6k is bit much but then you dont get the 1gb sonic version with dual bios easily which is premium flagship card. i had to wait almost 3 hours ( i was settling on 4850 1Gb since 4870 1Gb was not there, infact the dealkers did not knew if the 4870 comes in 1gb as ati cards are not that populer ( i dont know why as 4800 series is the best enginered product,)) when accidentally one dealer had this one piece. so i opted for it Gddr5, 1gb for future compatibility precisely because i also do lots of image and video editing for which ati radeon 4800 serious with its avivi and uvd beats nvidia by a long way

Before hand..am NOT questioning, the above statement, jus want to know more about the internal workings.
What does the extra 512MB do, till we are not using >900 RES..? Will 512MB be enough on the HD4870, I have a 19" display.?
From what I understand, the memory banks for RAM (not sure VRAM), fill as per requirement. So if we are using a display <900 RES, the >512 Memory will never get allocated for use...or will it...if the game is resource extensive (read Crysis / or anything hereon manufactured by Crytek). Will the 2nd 512MB VRAM module(s)..just sit there idle, never allocated for use..??
a HD 4870 512MB is more than unuf for gaming in a 19".even a HD 4850 can do this effortlessly

AFAIK, some resource intensive games will use the additional memory to store textures and other things. But basically, that additional memory wont do much good if you are using it on low resolution. However, minimum 512MB of VRAM is recommended on most mid-range and high end cards today irrespective of the resolution of the monitor..

And dun worry all cards nowadays hav 512MB VRAM
No, DDR2 and DDR3 is another story
Well, mostly till 1680x1050, it has been(I have) noticed that full out settings and 512MB VRAD love each other.
But at 1920x1200 and higher, the card starts begging to god tht y not 1GB VRAM.
Jus' my 2 cents
