Here is my 2C. I'm sure it's not much, but just shows that memory does help - at least in synthetics.
According to Legit Reviews, the HD4870 gets P8769 3dmarks.
Their processor is the newer Q9770.
My system, with the card clocked at 720/1050 and my q6600 at 3.6ghz I get P7850 marks.
The net processor performance, I am guessing is the same since, although theirs is 3.2ghz only, it's the newer version with higher performance/clock. Also, I do not think the CPU score has a very large impact on the overall score.
Seeing as how my clocks are so close to the 4870 (with the memory overclocked, even) and my score is so far away, I am guessing that the GDDR5 does have an impact, but it is not that large. I am sure that if I pushed my core to 750 I would jump my score to P8100.
Just my 2C

I've got close to that. I looked at their score, and didn't realize they shwed the gpu and cpu score. So I get my cpu score close to theirs, and bench again, this time with my card at 735/1060.
I got 7121 marks on my gpu score
They got 7890 marks on their 4870 gpu score
My cpu score was 13295
Their cpu score was 13132
I noticed that cpu speed does not affect the gpu score at all (My gpu score was exactly identical at 3.6ghz and 3.8ghz.)....
Overall, I got 8050 marks
They got 8769
My gpu score jumped more than 100 marks by increasing the gpu frequency 15mhz (and memory 10mhz). At 750/1050 this card should score around 7250 gpu marks which would bring it close to the 4870.
I am guessing that this card clocked at 800/1200 should EASILY overtake the 4870. I'll try that when I get the right size variable resistors.
1. Memory. I'm interested in seeing how big a benefit the 4870's memory gives.
2. You can, and we already have, roughly. In spite of different platforms, there are trends in the results.
3. Of course, and yes, average.
I had added it since gurusan provided an oc result. That a 4850 can reach 260 and 280 performance makes me interested in seeing those results as well.
The 4850 can surpass the GTX 280 The guy with .2 fps more than me has a highly clocked 45nm quad @ 3.7ghz while I only have a 65nm dual core at 3.6ghz. Also you should notice his GTX 280 is overclocked quite a bit :p

Yep, what I expected from linear extrapolation of your 810 result. What's your cooling now gurusan? Is 1680x1050 your max/monitor resolution? I'd like to see where the 4850's memory peaters out. And where is that chart from?

on watercooling. 27-28c idle 36-38c load.
And yeah 1680x1050 is my max resolution. The chart is from a private forum so I can't really share it here :p

in order to reach those speeds could i do it on AIR with a accellero s1 v2 with 2 120mm fans? Also the pencil volt mod, is it safe to do with an S1 on it. How high will i be able to clock with the pencil mod? I want to try it when i get my 4850 next week. Also what kind of pencil did you use for the mod?
you should be able to do high 850-900mhz on air i would think. And I just used a #2 pencil

Dang gurusan thats awsome! i really want to buy the 4850 now and try the mod, i was thinking about buying it from besbuy inorder to have the option to return it if it goes wrong. lol. but newegg gives 2gb of ddr2 for free with a visiontek. In the techpower article it said i wont get more than 1.4 on the vddc, is that true? Please stick with me and help me understand this. This is my first time considering to volt mod.
the only problem i would have from overclocking, is that i have to flash the bios to get the speeds right?
Long ago I did a homemade water setup for my k6; square PCV block caulked right onto the CPU Still have the bilge pump I used(attwood v450, 450GPH@13.6v so ~= 397GPH/1503LPH@12v vs 1400LPH for the Liang D4,) and tubing. Also have an AC condenser/evaporator from a 90s Civic that I can use as a radiator, which is as tall as my tower case, slightly narrower, ie big for this use, which has a half and quarter inch inlet/outlets. Leaves coming up with a container to hold the pump, scrounge something up, and the water blocks.

Can we get a list of expected overclock and maximum voltage per cooling option?
Is this about right?
Stock cooler with higher fan speed
1.3V? 800MHz?
Upgraded air
1.4V? 850MHz?
Water
1.5V+? 900MHz+?

someone with a 4870 really needs to step it up and post comparisons to 4850 oc's

Ive got a Q6600 65nm @ 3.6Ghz, 4870 @ stock I scored P89xx. Dont remember the exact number but was just under 9000.
I will run Crysis 1680 later, what settings are all the ones in the spreadsheet run at? 1680x1050, very high, no AA?

dudes, hunch: r700 will be slightly faster than two 4850's in crossfire.
i checked some benchies, 4850 averages around 79-80% the performance of a 4870, i think the extra 125mhz adds about 17% while have gddr5 adds the next 3-4%.
if the plx bridge doesn't do anything super for increasing r700's performance over 2x hd4870 in old-fashioned traditional [two-pcb/two-pcie] x-fire, then we should expect R700 to be 4% faster than 4850 x-fire (which still eats up a GTX 280 for the performance crown). Nvidia loses come August! Wonder if they take the lead again with 55nm gt200?
edit: just realized i posted this in the 4850 vs. 4870 core speed comparison thread, but it still has relevant information. I agree with this guy 100%:
