    Comment: review also talking about the card's linux performance

    Comment: The 4850 does what it is designed to do with high end performance outclassing the HD3870 across the board for a $200 price point using less power and with excellent features the HD4850 is interesting competition to NVIDIA’s mid-range card the 9800GTX+ and 9800GTX standard at $199.

    Excellent performance for this card but things to consider are attaching a good heatsink and fan (voids warranty) and it only has a 1 year warranty. (Read More)

    I purchased this card for a friends build and tested some crysis out on it. I was impressed by the FPS I was getting on high settings o 1280x1024 resolution. However on my 24" wide screen (1920x1200) the frame rates were abysmal and wasn't even close to being playable. I will keep my GTX280 for that monitor. However if you use a 19" monitor this is a great card for you. Though I found the 8800GTS G92 to perform slightly better in most games and as such the 9800GTX+ would perform better yet for a similar price. Either way this is interesting times in the graphics market! (Read More)

    Coming from a Radeon HD 3850 256MB, I felt a pretty big performance increase. For the first time, I'm actually able to play at high resolution with everything maxed out...and I didn't even have to break the bank!
