Yeah the HD4770 is much cheaper here too €90 for the 4770 and €120 for the 4850. But it's not possible to Crossfire them because they are from a different serie.
Faster in clock speed maybe, but the HD4850 still has 160 more stream processors.

Cheapest HD4850 on Newegg is $90. The cheapest HD4770 is $110 and it's not in stock. Pricing differences could occur in different regions though.

EDIT: Sorry Nightz2k, I didn't see that you posted that link

Mootsfox just basically posted what I did. Just with a pic instead of a link.

But just going off that chart, you'll see what the OP wants just won't work.

I see, so i guess its either i swap my HD4850 for HD4770 or get another HD4850. What about the performance of a pair of overclocked HD4850 vs overclocked HD4770?

Well if you were to get a new card, then the HD4770 might have been a good option. But considering you already have a HD4850, your best bet is getting another one.

Agreed. Makes more sense.

You will notice an improvement.
