Ya I noticed it. In FEAR you can see ur character's legs while kicking and in Crysis while jumping, falling ,etc.

why 1024x768???

wow.....nice benchmarks.

well i think at 17" crt gives maximum resolution upto 1280x1024.

Nice..thanks for sharing...great insight..for all those wondering to get a HD4850...

Thanks..!

Yesh dude the games which I requested for benching:
Assassins Creed
Test Drive Unlimited
Rainbow Six Vegas 2

These were the only games which gave me dodgy frames on my system.I tried TDU on Catalyst 8.8 but it didn't do any good.The stuttering is very bad when you run the car at very high speeds.I'll give it one last shot with Catalyst 8.9 before letting it go.

allwyndlima Bhai I checked Assassins Creed on Vista ultimate 64bit SP1 both Dx9 and Dx10 versions at 1280x1024 all set to maximum and with AA & AF on

Even with lot of crouds there was no FPS drop I got around 55 FPS in Dx9 mode cant check FPS in Dx10

Guys no answer for my query

Cool benchmarks yesh, can you share which tool you are using to create those graphs. Looks really professional with your watermark as well.....Really cool..

I was playing Mercenaries 2 other day and decided to ramp up the effects, that is everything maxed out but the res. was 1152x864. At these settings game stuttered at lot, infact it became a slideshow. Situation didn't improved till I reverted settings back to low. It was a Skullptura rip and Catalyst version is 8.9.

Dude it's not the drivers or the card.I mentioned this issue before to Yesh as well.It's a bug when the Water Effects are turned on in this game, it becomes a powerpoint presentation.Take out the water effects & ram everything up as you please.It should do the trick.

EDIT: Official 8.10 Catalyst drivers released.Here's the link: *game.amd.com/us-en/drivers_catalyst.aspx?p=xp/radeonx-xp

New v8.10 supports "Fan speed control" - no need for profile hack!

Yep just installed it & seems to have taken care of that problem.No more profile hacks.

how is the game "mercenaries 2" i was planning to get that game today is that game good in first person shooter

Its a Third Person Shooter and good game but gets great if u r into blowing stuff up, running missions, high jacking planes and tanks and choppers, just general wanton destruction.

got a little prob here....game like grid, dmc 4, cod4 except for crysis.....my framerate doesnt go higher than 60fps.....even at the extreme low settings........i've even tried doom 3 at 640X480 at ultra low settings.....my config is q9300, asus p5k WS, 4gb ram, 8800gt 512MB, Windows Vista 32bit sp1...

Check if the V-Sync is set to ON.If it is then turn it off.Check the setting in the Nvidia control panel & in-game as well.

this 8800gt is one of the good as well as bad -------- which do not support some games ----- crysis is one of the **** games which form a hands with nvidia --------- try to OC your 8800gt with the proc......... :-(

@cyborg47

+1 for allwyndima's suggestion.... I too experience the same in my friends system, and when i play thru the options i find that something called VSync is there and i just turn it off... Oops, i got an whooping 95+ frame rate with NFS : Most Wanted.....

With an 8800GT..... coupled with an E4600.....

Nice screenies.

R

hey can anyone tell me is PALIT HD4850 SONIC version good?

One word for it dude, if u can get it, AWESOME!

R

^^
Ok.. i'm getting it for 10.6K in kolkata. in that price should i go for it?

btw, i have specs:
AMD X2 5000+,
Asus M2NPV-VM,
Kingston 1GB DDR2 + Transcend 2GB DDR2(both 800Mhz),
Seagate 320GB SATA + WD 300GB SATA HDD
Logitech G15 Keyboard
Razor Copperhead Gaming Mouse
(XFX 8600GT 256MB DDR3)

got a local PSU 450W without any pci-e connector. I was thinking of buying a POV Black Diamond 500W as well for my new card. can someone tell me is it worth it buying a POV or a Cooler Master 500W Extreme Power will be good? though cooler master is bit expensive. some people were giving advice to buy a corsair vx450W but its even costlier.

^^Sure, go ahead, ur system is perfect for it. AMD+ATi, later on u can even try their Fusion utility.
Now my question to all, I've MSI R4850, the June SKU with single slot cooler. Twice in COD5 and thrice last night in COD4 multiplayer, the "atimkdag" driver crashed and recovered successfully, but why crashed? My CCC is 8.11. Can the temperatures be at fault here? If they are then please tell me some good after market coolers for it preferably upto 3K.

^Accelero S1 Rev.2 would probably be your best bet in case your looking for an after market cooler. I am going to install it today. My temps have risen insanely. I think your problem is more related to some driver conflict. I'll try & look up for it. Also did you get a BSOD in BIA: Hells Highway on the Black Friday level?

Not BSOD but the screen went blank in that level during cut scene, new a driver upgrade will fix it and it did.Currently at 50% Duty cycle my temp. is 74-75 degree C. Someone said that a BIOS flash can bring temps down but I'm scared that I might brick my card so haven't done it yet. Moreover I don't know how to do it either.

Well the hotfix did the trick for me too. Anyway is 74 your load or idle temp right now? If it's idle then it's way too high, similar to mine right now.

Idle dude, at 50% duty cycle of fan. Gonna stretch winters with stock config, if bombs out then gonna RMA it and if sustains then new cooler in April.

R

are these in-game benchmarks?

I got my Accelero S1 Rev.2 installed & the idle temps dropped from 76 degrees to a whopping 42 degrees. Played BIA: HH for an hour & it rose to only 47 degrees.

Congrats mate! Care to put some screenies?
Take a look at this Dudes.
Earlier today, I ran my system and the GPU's temp was 76(idle). i ran COD4 Single player, played 2 levels, for about half an hour and boom, my screen went blank. I knew at once that those "atimkdag" has crashed so I quit the game an d ran CCC. Guess what was the temperature there after 1/2 hour of gaming? Fuggin' 101 Degree Celsius!

I switched off the machine, took the card out and cleaned it. Fired up the rig and now the idle temperature is 60 degree but dunno what would be under load temp now as haven't tested yet. I know I should get a better cooler but I want to know one thing. My card is MSI R4850, its a June 2008 SKU so has single slot cooler but new SKUs have double slot cooler, so Can I claim RMA on the card now just on the basis of the temperature or does it needs to break a leg or two to qualify? If I do get the card RMAd, what are the chances of me getting the new card with the double slot cooler?

R

I'm currently getting 45 degrees(max) idle temperatures and 39 degrees when AC turned on.
Whilst playing games i think it goes it to about 55 degrees.
Do I need to enable manual fan control ? if so, what % should I set it to ?

You're in the same dilemma as I was prior to adding my after market cooler. Those temps will keep rising unless you either kill the card & RMA it or open up the heatsink & clean the dust settled on it. Blowing air around it won't help at all. Trust me, I have been through this cat-mouse game. Try claiming an RMA for excess heating. I don't know how MSI's policy works but my GeCube has a 1:1 replacement policy. If it's the same with yours then you'll get the replacement quite fast. The chances of getting a dual slot cooler would only be if they don't have the same model (single slot cooler) in stock with them.

@redmanc: Is your card recently purchased? The idle temps are really good. No need to tweak anything with the fan speed. If you do want to try it out then set it to 45-55% which should be more than enough.

Dude I too have a measly 2MP cam of E51 but it gets the job done.

I bought the card from SMC International in Nehru Place. I dunno the RMA procedure so will appreciate if some Delhite can help. I'm also gonna put this issue at TE. BTW the cooler u've got, does it have a fan also or just heatpipes? what's the size of the fan and the price of the total thing?

Accelero S1 Rev.2 is only the heatsink. I have added a 120mm fan over it for additional cooling. But people have got pretty good drops just with the Accelero applied as well. The total cost along with shipping was Rs. 1,690.

How'd u attached fan? E.T.A after applying for RMA?

Attached the fan by regular cable zip ties that I had got from my Corsair VX450. No idea about RMA ETA.

R

hey guyz can someone tell me, is getting an ATI card with a nvidia chipset based motherboard a good idea?? i have an Asus M2NPV-VM mobo which has nvidia nforce 430 southbridge and onboard nvidia geforce 6150 northbridge. will installing an ati gfx card coz any driver conflicts or performance stability issues??

There will be no conflict whatsoever. All you need is a PCI-E X16 slot & that's about it.

R

^^
thanx for the assurance Ethan. now i can buy the damn card without worrying much.

This game is going to be one tough cookie to get it up and running as early reports have indicated only one thing, myriads of crash related issues and equally huge number of fixes to address the relative errors.

Is my answer offtopic?? 'Cause it's *only ATI* question

^^Why don't u create another thread instead

I have a ahem version of FC2. The crack doesn't allow me to run benchmark. Is there crack that allows it?

I also want to buy an Accelero. From where did u buy it allywdinama? From the last one month i was running my card at 100% fan speed and the temps at load were 104 degrees. After 1 month i got Arctic MX-2 Cleaned the heatsink reapplied the termal paste and now its 82 degrees at 100% fan speed. So i badly need that Accelero heat sink. ANy help would be appreciated. From where did u buy it and are there any poblems in installing the heat sink?

Can i get my Card RMAed? I don't think GeCube has released a card with custom cooling. I hate to run the card at 100% fan speed. It creates a lot of noise and the temps at load are still 82 degrees while playing Far Cry 2. Help would be appreciated.

You're in the same situation as I was few weeks back. This single slot HD4850's are cursed I tell you. They work fine for few first 2 months then the temps just insanely skyrocket. Get the Accelero from KMD @Techenclave forums. I got mine delivered within one day. The cost is around 1.65k but totally worth every bit of it. Earlier my idle temps used to be 76 degrees & load temp would be 105 degrees & that too with just 10 mins into the game.

Fitting an Accelero for the first time was quite messy. I screwed up on the back clamp which held the default heatsink. All I can say is download a video over from YouTube & that will give you a basic idea. Also add on a 120mm fan to it. I have got one attached myself. Now the idle temps have dropped to an insane 42 degrees & load barely crosses 50 degrees. It was totally worth the effort. Just PM KMD & he should have one sourced out to you (if in stock).

^^ Thanks man. I'lll try to arrange money. Thankx again for the reply.

Well I too was going for Accelero but now since winters are here and exams too, not gaming much so will slap on the customs later but one things decided, it ain't gonna be Accelero, hopefully Zalman VF1000 LED, best V.F.M according to me. Is in short supply, hope KMD can get it for me. More Zalman VF1000 is what MSI is now slapping on their HD4850s, me just got p@wned into buying an older SKU otherwise wud've got the same thing for less.

i dnt thnk zalman coolers are available in india........they will look cool on 4850 though.........but hw cn u say that they r great vfm???????? in us they cost abt $50 so in india its goin to be much more........i wud advise u to go wid accelero rev 1 as it is much much efficient than zalman 1.......read the reviews for both coolers........

@plasmasnake, how much does that zalman cooler cost?
Btw i benchmarked Far Cry2. I gt these
At 1024x768 with ultra high settings and 2xAA i got
Average: 30.70
Max:37.99
Min:26.96
I think these are too low. The drivers were 8.12 catalyst. Is it that the scores are low for XP and higher for VISTA?

Read carefully, Zalman fan is available through KMD and costs only 2500 bucks. I think ir\ts a good V.F.M as it includes both heatpipe and a L.E.D fan thus providing more efficient cooling and also the BLING! The Accelero's cost is around 1600 bucks and we get heatpipes only, the fan has to be attached as "desi jugaad".

Dude you can get the AC Turbo Module fans separately for 700 bucks & that would easily pwn the Zalman cooler & still cost less than the Zalman.

yup thats true.........wid turbo module on accelero no zalman cooler is able to match its perfomance.......within that price segment.......

AC Turbo Module, won't that too be a desi jugaad or is it custom built for Accelero?

No desi jugaad. It's a add-on accessory for the Accelero S1. You can get that from KMD as well.

@yesh1683
while playing crysis warhead and crysis the game exits while playing.
did u experiencing such a problem.
My rig ~
Asus P5KPL-CM | Pali HD4850 | Seagate 640G (32MB buffer) |2GB Transcend Ram 800mhz | Cooler Master Extreme Power 600W.

GFX driver 8.6 (Vista).
The worst part is the game is not running in Win XP.

any suggestions?

@ yesh1683 - Nice becnh with a lot of games ............ & the good point is you kept it constant

@ jerryelvis - it's normal. I faced the same issue with vista ultimate 32bit & 9600Gt with latest drivers & with 4Gb ram while playing crysis warhead. I've patched the game but the issue was not fixed.

You are using a coolermaster 500w psu , is it of extreme power or extreme power plus series . I have 500w cooler master extreme power plus and many say it is not able to handle 4850 and above that well , i am going to buy ati 5770 soon .

SMPS : Cooler Master eXtreme Power Duo 600W.

all these games( Farcry2,COD4 & 5,GRID,DMC4,NFS carbon,fallout3) were kick ass. :-D

Crysis and Crysis warehead failed to run..... :cry:

hope there is some compatability issues with Crysis and ATI Radeon,not sure though...

@ rohan_mhtr - one of our forum member is running a HD4890 along with a phenom II x3 720 BE on CM 500W extreme power plus - so I think you would be able to run a HD4850 without any issue
