Default_User Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 two ati 4850's??????? :blink: now that's just plain crazy lol, your telling me, these things have bumped my CPU temps about 5C....damn it. lol. The sticker is actually a decal that I got from frozen CPU's distributor of decals...they do any design you want, in case you were wondering...don't remember the name of the company tho.. but the machine plays anything relatively well, I don't go for High res in games because that doesn't make any freakin' sense. o yea, anyone interested in temps, these bad boys idle at 80 (yes, bad) and can go up to 92 (holy crap right? only seen it once...) *patently waits for rivatuner to update* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 but the machine plays anything relatively well, I don't go for High res in games because that doesn't make any freakin' sense. Wait...you bought two 4850s but don't play at high resolution? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Default_User Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Wait...you bought two 4850s but don't play at high resolution? i go up to 1280 by 900 max... i guess that is big but no 1600 by whatever lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardnrg Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 isn't 4850 CF enough to drive 1680x1050 (I assume this is the native resolution of your 22" LCD?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Default_User Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 isn't 4850 CF enough to drive 1680x1050 (I assume this is the native resolution of your 22" LCD?) it is, but you get lower frames the higher you go.... i like my frames lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comp Dude2 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 (edited) lol, for me resolution is the MOST important setting in a game and i always run at 1680x1050. strange child......... Edited June 25, 2008 by Comp Dude2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waco Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 it is, but you get lower frames the higher you go.... i like my frames lol You play at a non native resolution with 2 4850s. I'm baffled. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
markiemrboo Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 You play at a non native resolution with 2 4850s. I'm baffled. Crysis at 1920x1200 (all medium, no AA) with a 3870 is fine here. I can't imagine 2x4850's would have much of a problem at resolutions higher than a measily 1280 x 900 really I could play most things at 1280x1024 with a X1800XT....

slick2500 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 (edited) You only benefit from having 2 gpu's at resolutions higher than 1280x1024. And I think you should post that at the Black Mesa Source forums. Edited June 25, 2008 by slick2500 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
