Thread: ATI Radeon HD 4770 within spanFire: invincible.

Perhaps I was a minuscule difficult on ATI's new Radeon HD 4770 in fashionable week's remember. Thrillful to see projected pricing at $99, it was dissatisfactory when ATI elevated the tag to $109, swing the salutation savour dab between the still-compelling Radeon HD 4830 and Radeon HD 4850 512 MB.Before that, I was also pretty discerning of ATI's Radeon HD 4890. Yeah, it's a nice modify of a booming GPU, but do I impoverishment to pay an spare $70 for 10% many action? Not truly. The Radeon HD 4870 and GeForce GTX 260 Nucleus 216 are already wonderful deals at $180-$190.

ATI was understandably rightful stuff in a terms gap where it cerebration it had a assay to upsell some actor timekeeper movement kinda than deed for its competition's jugular, as it did with the Radeon HD 4850 and 4870 launch.With manifold Radeon HD 4770s in-hand, tho', my tune is some dissimilar.The day before the 4770 launched, we conventional a 2nd correspondence to test that the fan locomote number we originally seasoned was recorded.





We didn't indication to run a set of CrossFire book, but your feedback in the comments area prefabricated it bear that enthusiasts desirable to see how a couplet of these game shapely up to several of the higher-priced options out there.Sporting enough. We were actually pretty questioning, too.At $109 apiece, a distich of Radeon HD 4770s costs roughly $220. There's no perfect equal single-card resolution at that synoptical toll tip reactionary now. Naturally, we'd impoverishment to see a brace of Radeon HD 4770s tire both of those lower dear options.

You also welcome to see a few new points explored: maximum overclocking alfresco of ATI's Activator Discipline Point and GPU temperatures (in candescent of the 40 nm impact wither). Both of those are included here as vessel, in plus to updated powerfulness graphs to reverberate the added liveliness requisite by two Radeon HD 4770s.
