      Maybe no.

      It all depends on your other system specs. If you have something poor like an Athlon 3500+ or a Pentium D, no it won't.

      You need a decent CPU and amount of memory and then it'll play all high.

        Re: Sapphire 4850

        My other system specs are as follows:

        INtel core 2 Duo 2.2 OCd to 2.4
        2 gigs 800mhz ocz high performance OCd to 887mhz
        500 wat psu
        and yeah so on

        with that will this card max COD4 EVERYTHING MAXED, and a high res with good FPS. and Res, will it run it 1680x1024 er W/e with good FPS?

          You'll play maxed at 1680x1050, but probably with only 4x AA.

          I manage 8X AA with my 4870 and that is quite a bit better than the 4850.

            My 8800GT performs commendably in Call of Duty 4, and I'm sure it's not as fast as a 4850. Even my old 7600GT did a decent job of running the game. You don't have to worry about performance with your new card.

              If you play at 1680*1050 you only really need 2x AA... you can't notice much of a difference with more AA and it eats a lot of precious framerates.

              My GTS gets the job done with around 100 FPS. You should be fine.

                4850 is plenty for CoD4.

                  Lol, 260GTX is just overkill.

                    They don't include any of the high end cards

                      Where is the HD4870 and HD4870X2 in that chart? Anyway my Radeon RX1900 512 ran the game on high settings with decent frame rates I don't see how the 4850 would have any problem running it maxed out at 1920x1200.

                      I currently own a 4870.

                        That's not overkill. This is:

                          It'll run high until you bring out the AntiA.

                            Nvidia sucks at higher resolutions while ATI nearly keeps the same performance.

                              I run it at 1600x1200 with everything on high an 4xAA. I have V-sync on, so it stays at 60 FPS. I'm pretty sure the 4850 is at least on par with/better in some areas than the 8800GTS G92. Your processor and RAM are fine, so you should be able to at least maintain 60 FPS as well on 1680x1050.
