I HAVE TOO PROBLEM I NEVER ENABLE BLOODY CROSSFIREX ATI SUCKS TRUST ME I NO FUCKING WAY I HAVE THIS GRAPHICCARD SINS 2007 NOW 2011 I HAVE STILL PROBLEM NO NEW UPDATES ABOUT CROSFIREX FOR WINDOWS 7 AND XP ATI SUCKS CRAP DONT BUY TRUST ME PLZ
Did he got two dvi-vga coverters instead of one of each a dvi-vga and a dvi-hdmi, he said the dvi-hdmi must have fell out of the box. Well I only got one of each in my HD3850?.
@produKtNZ indeed, it's still a great card, though not for buying now for new games.
For what I play, it's excellent, but i have artifacts if i don't underclock from 725/950 to 710/910. Funny thing is after i underclock, i can clock it higher both gpu and memory and it doesn't make them.
Agree, I have HD3870 IceQ Turbo and the memory is unstable at the factory overclock. What is more, I've tried testing Vram stability and it resulted in absolutely no errors, BUT it crashes in almost every "heavier" game :/
I have finally managed to fix the problem! The solution sounds interesting, but I simply disconnected HDMI connector from monitor and DVI from card and plugged VGA one instead (VGA to monitor directly and using DVI to VGA adapter to graphics card. While doing that I was not putting any hopes it will solve the problem while doing that but it definitely did. Now I don't get any vertical stripes and everything runs perfectly with factory OC on mem. What is more, I have overclocked it even more now
i ahve this exect same card i run it crossfire and it runs crysis all high lvl detail models with no lag but i must say loading isnt as fast as i want it to be besides that this gpu is a excellent choise for a gamer
Logan! Dude.. 23 fps in call of duty? im getting 184 with two 3870 and Q6660 oc to 3.51 ghz.. and when i had my old iceq ive was getting 52 fps with one.. i think somthing is wrong here.
actually the HD3850 memory is from samsung and are made for highest of 1,9ghz mem clock... but you can go higher ofcourse.. but going higher makes it heat up much more... if you don't understand what I mean with samsung memory.. Just ask a review site or any other computer company...
Im glad ATI isnt pulling that "special release" crap that they did in the 2k series...this card is readily available for purchase no loop holes, back orders, or limited supplies! FINALY!
my brother played cod4 on high in 1680x1050 on his shitty 8500GT with only 256mb and he got like 40 fps on cod4!
so shut up when you don't know shit! this guy logan knows WAY more than you!
by the way even the 8800gtx doesn't get a lot of fps on crysis so wtf are you saying??? my god there is a knew level of stupid it's made specially for YOU!

I got one, not planning to play at there resolutions, but got this to play cod4 at 1024x768 Its the shiiiitttt all high
tehUpdater 2 years ago
@tehUpdater At that resolution, your card isn't at it's full potential. It has a good fillrate and a lot of memory to work well with most processors.

If anyone is considering buy one on of these as a midrange thing, i suggest go for it :D
I have one and it's a absolute overclocking ANIMAL!
Standard factory overclock is 735mhz GPU
Mine is running glitch and artefact free @ 827.5MHZ
Ram stock @ 910MHZ
Mine is running : 1050.5MHZ
Imagine the potential with water and or T.E.C cooling :D?

usually u can fix this overclocking problem by downgrading ur overclock to factory default speeds...

you can overclock a Sapphire 3850 to a higher clock (750/1000) and get same results as this one I guess..
