This is crap. Honestly. Why people test gaming rigs with left for dead is beyond me.. it uses the half life 2 engine, which i used to run 1600x1200 on around 55-65 fps.. on a radeon 9550
I am getting the same model of graphics card but it is only the 512mb model. Do you or anybody know if there game would still work as good as this.
I am getting a custom made PC. Here are the Specs
Intel core 2 duo 2.9ghz
4gb ram
640gb hdd
Palit ATI HD 4870 Sonic Duel Edition 512mb
Also i was wondering if it is possible to connect 2 of the same model graphics cards into one. Cause i heard on the internet and off a friend that it was possible to do that?
Your PC will run it better than mine. My CPU is a bottleneck in my system. Yours should be fine.
And you friend and the internet were correct. You can buy another HD 4870 and slot it right besides your other and run them both. Make sure you have 2 PCI-E slots, though.
Is it the # of ghz, that causes bottle necking? Because i have a phenom x3 8450 (triple core) oc'd to 2.40ghz and a MSI hd 4830 oc'd to speeds of the 4850....Will my gpu bottleneck?
only a overclocker would notice the difference, but the CPU is good enough not to bottleneck that GPU, so you should be fine, but overclocking does improve performance, both cpu and gpu.
ok i see. I was told that most games run on 1 core, but some (aka Crysis, Crytec Engine Games) run on two cores and so that's good. Plus, this way i can do other stuff in the background. I suggest triple cores, bout the same price, if not cheaper than most dual cores, + can perform background processes. Great for gaming if high clocks, you can get ones that are 2.70 ghz easily oc'd to 3.0ghz, then your set!
well i dont care how they called in the game any way ! The game dont look like that when its maxed out... :p so i was right when i told the game isnt maxed out
Well first of all never talk to people like that ! Thats unrespecting! Second of all if you say maxed out its suppoust to be maxed out! I dont see anything bad that i sayd ! But for some reason you freak out like a 12 years old kid...
would it run smoother dont get me wrong it runs really smooth but would i be better if I had a Q6600 overclocked to 3Ghz or something getting that CPU or what is called xS
i would save up a little more for a decent phenom, or the phenom 2 (cheapest is $180 on new egg, and competes with a q8800 from intel, which is REALLY good)
Great Vid! I have the 512mb 4870 XOC Black Edition with Phenom x4 9950 and 8gig of ddr2 1066 ram...would I have any problems playing this game with everything on max?
Yer I have same card too, but I am running my system with an opteron 180 and 3gb of kingston ddr 400. I have overclcoked the opty and I get just over 80% usage of the card. ddr 400 = ddr2 667mhz same write and read speed, but I cant overclcok that great because ram don't have the frequency. with system overclock of about 12% including ram i get 80 -150fps, 45fps with fraps. Opty's haul ass.

It means they would be the same in terms of power.
Basically, neither should be a bottleneck to your system.

PatVRulz 2 years ago
well both, a quadcore/tri-core is great if the application supports it, if it's not supported by the application a dualcore will be just as good.
if a game/application only supports 2 cores, a dualcore will be just as fast as a coad/tri-core cpu, overclocking (MHz) makes a difference, no doubt.
Sorry for bad english :/

I think 720p..
Although resolution doesn't make any difference really because of my crappy CPU.
But this game runs at about 50-100fps at 1680x1050 and with a better CPU you're looking at a 30-40% increase in framerate.

Well my CPU bottlenecks my system. So if I had a better one, I'd get twice the framerate.
