Overclocker in Training
|
Hi guys, I've got the HIS flower cooler flavour of this card running at stock. Just a quick question before I get to OCing it. Will it consume more power? My 400w is probably enough in any case, but I'd still like to know.
Sensors read ~35C idle. Is this normal?

What do you all think of these?
Hey 4830 club,
__________________I'm in the process of building my new system and want to get two 4830s to crossfire. I found this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814127402 It's the "MSI R4830-T2D1G OC Radeon HD 4830 1GB". That's a 1gb 4830 with a custom MSI cooler. I've read a review which said the 512mb version of this card overclocked great and was a lot cooler. Now, that MSI 1gb card retails for about $150 on newegg. But, I found it the other day with 10 instant and $30 instant saving so it actually ends up being about $110. That's ~$220 for 2 1gb 4830s. I'm thinking with the high overclocking potential + 1gb of RAM on each card they should be pretty awesome. Anyone have experience with this card? What do you all think, is there a better solution for the money I am looking to spend. Thanks. SCTechie.

I hope your running a 64bit os. because that 2gb or vram will take away from your available ram on the mobo.

Yeah I am going to be running 64bit Vista, at least until Win7 is released.
__________________I'm more concerned that this is the only card (4830s) I've seen with 1gb of RAM. That seems like a crazy deal to me, 1gb 4830 for ~110. Just hoping somewhere here might have some experience with it. It's an i7 system. If I had infinite money I would just get a 4870x2 but I don't. However, a CF 1gb 4830 setup seems killer to me, especially after I overclock it.

What's going to be your monitor resolution? I don't think you would need 1gb for anything below 1920x1280, I might be wrong though. Glad to see another one sporting 4830, they're really awesome. I'll be updating my clocks soon. Upping my memory clocks 4mhz at a time with rivatuner and then testing 10-20 minutes with atitool :P

Hey Guys,
__________________I will be primarily gaming on a 24inch LCD I plan to buy. However, I also have a 1080p Samsung TV 50inch with HDMI etc, which is why I want the 1gb RAM. I will be gaming in high resolution with AA/AF. Can't wait to get this thing built. I'll be ordering these tonight to make sure I don't lose out on the rebates cause as a guy above said, $110 for a 1gb 4830 seems like a killer price. Will update when I get them / the system is built. SCtechie
