That X shaped box is just retarded :|
But a 1GB card sounds good.
Need some help here plz.
Do I wait for the 4770's to be released in SA & go crossfire. Or get 2 1GB 4850's or one 4890?

"says who?" right back at ya. .. sounds like bs to me.. but i'll waste my time and give those combinations a tryQuote:

It's not! Can't crossfire 640 SPs with 320 or 800 SPs ;)Quote:

hd 4830 + hd 4770 = no cf + system hangs/bluescreen when starting ccc
hd 4890 + hd 4830 = bluescreen at startup.
nuked the amd review drivers and switched to 9.4
hd 4850 + hd 4890 = works
hd 4830 + hd 4890 = works but gives "mismatched but will still work" warning
hd 2900 xt + hd 3850 = no go
so in essence, cf only works with identical asics. rv790 is rv770 with a few non-architectural/non-instruction changes (rerouting of signal lines inside the gpu)
There's a new one, on stock, just air, no mods at all, Vgpu 0,95v....1000Mhz will be possible with 1.0-1.05v on GPU.

i havnt kept up with the whole thing, but has power consumption and heat been improved. i think its a shame that its between a 4830 and 4850 in performance and heat, but with the die shrink should be a killer in the perf per watt. i would have upgrated my card with this if the power consumption was where a 40nm with gddr5 should be.
Is there a consensus yet on overclocked 4770 vs. overclocked 4850?
HD2900 and HD3850 can be crossfired, I've done that when HD3850 was just released. I believe it was Guru3D that tested RV670+R600 crossfired successfully back then. I agree with you only identical asics can be crossfired, but only because the driver allowing which cards can be crossfired. The reason is probably really simple, to be sure customers don't have problems with combining totally different cards. With older (modified) or beta drivers there's a change hd4770 and HD4830 can be crossfired. To much hassle off course and not doable on the long run.Quote:

i specifically asked amd "does it support triple or quad configurations?" their answer was "By design, the 4770 is limited to two cards in CrossFireX"
hadn't seen that review,found it on amd's product page-Quote:

too bad,three of these might have been a very very good performance solution for the money.Quote:

yes and as soon as ati enables the sideport r700 will beat gtx 295.Quote:

Agreed. It's gaudy and unpleasant for sure, but not stupid.Quote:
