4850 times?? :o

[KillerStickMan]

Sooooo...I've decided to upgrade to a 4850 soon, and I've been doing some looking and so far this looks like the best deal. Because first of all it's the cheapest, second of all, it's factory overclocked. And I don't really have a third reason, but does anyone know if ASUS has good customer service and RMA and the like? And if not what ATI card brands do. As always other suggestions are welcome...

oh yea, is there a big increase between 512 and 1gb?

No 2% - 5% unless your running above 1920x1200 resolution

Hmmmmm, so overclocked card that's $20 cheaper than the rest with a better fan/cooler, or good customer service...I'm not one to have stuff fail on me (never happened before), but i'll have to think on this. What do you guys think?

Re: 4850 times?? :o

well their service may not be completely up too scratch but i have never had anything asus fail on me. Usually if something diesit does it in the first few days which means you would send it back to Newegg.

Overclocked GFX cards usuall only make a couple of FPS difference. If its a couple of bucks more for something which is more solid (with a better cooler) even if it does have lower clocks, its probs worth it.

well i meant the overclocked card was $20 cheaper, and had a better cooler on it than stock ones
