Summary:I have used the EAH4850 and get generally good results, inspite fairly noisy. However, I enjoy SecondLife.com, a very co-active game and inspite of replacing the card, upgrading the cpu to 550w, ensured drivers up-to-date and confirming adequate cooling, it crashes regularly. from Mwave.com I also didn't notice any loud noise from the system although this is totally subjective... It looked great and ran games good, but the thing crashed my system like crazy. I previously had a radeon 2600 pro as my graphic card which ran fine. I upgraded my power supply from a antec 480 to another antec 550, upon reading ATI's recommendations. from Amazon.com I specifically bought this looking for the RED card, as I am building a Crossfire system with an emphasis on low noise. Amazon shipped me the newer green card instead, even though it is listed as a seperate item on the site. Diamond 4850 PCIE 512MB GDDR3 Video Card RED Diamond 4850PE3512V ATI Radeon HD 4850 PCIE 512MB GDDR3 Dual DVI Video Card GREEN from Amazon.com Excelente VGA, aunque calienta un poco mas de lo que quiera, no me quedo, buen precio y excelente rendimiento. La cambie por una BFG 8800GT OC2 y actualmente tengo un monitor de 19" y si se nota bastante el cambio gracias tambien al manejo de CFAA de 24x de ATI. Recomendadisima from Amazon.com I took a 8 year hiatus from ATI video cards and switched over to Nvidia. Back then ATI drivers were notorious for being buggy, late arriving, and having issues with a few select games. from Amazon.com First thing, unlike most other brands this card did not come with 6-pin power connector that is needed to supply the card with power if you have PSU without 6-pin. After getting my 6-pin connector (hard to find in local shops), I ran the card and after checking its temperature it appeared to run way too hot. I'm getting 72-74c idle and up to 85c load temp, this is probably due to the poor diamond heatsink. I'll probably be forced to buy custom heatsink for this card later. from Amazon.com ATI had finally managed to get competitive again on price/performance and drivers. A lot of sites will claim this chipset is the best deal under 200 dollars, and I agree. from Amazon.com This card has been great so far (all of a couple of weeks). Every game I throw at it has been rendered smooth as silk. Colors are the typical excellent for ATI-based cards. The price was right and I didn't spend extra on game demos I didn't want. from Amazon.com I bought it after reading several reviews online, and I wanted to use an ATI card for a change. It seemed to me that nVidia cards were somewhat overpriced. from Amazon.com Pro's: 8800GTX performance for sub $200 is great. Full support for HDCP and hi-def decoding. from Amazon.com
