Far Cry 2 on Diamond Radeon 4650 (HD)

[Latvietis96]

how do you think, could I run this game, when I will buy this graphics card, now my pc specs are: 1gb ram, Pentium D 2.8 ghz. Now i have a 7100gs but I will have a 4650

[Latvietis96]

@Latvietis96 ignore what I said b4, now I`ve got 2gigs of ram :D

[GamerElite9]

Horrible Sound quality

[Narrcotics101]

hey i think it might work on my pc idk lemme no i got a AMD Phenom 2 X4 810 2.6ghz (i couldnt do roman numerals) 8 gb of memory and i was looking at the HD 4650 ,but idk whats the highest it will go is it 1gb? or what 

[Isakuma]

@Narrcotics101 The 4650 would be pretty weak for your computer. You should get a 5970, or 2 5770's in Crossfire. That's if you're going for ATI, of course.

[Narrcotics101]

@Isakuma alright thanks and whats the highest memory you can get on graphic cards?

[Isakuma]

@Narrcotics101 There are editions of the 5970 that have 4 GB of VRAM.

[T2cool5]

@MInimeDrummerBoi hey if u were too chose between ATi radeon 4650 sapphire or ATi radeon 4650 diamond what would u choose?????

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

@T2cool5 Well they're both the same cards and I like Sapphire so I would choose Sapphire.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

@Lucksen23 Yes it would "work".

[NLmonsterNL]

Will this work on my pc?

AMD DUAL CORE X2 250 @3,0ghz x2

ATI HD4650

2Gb DDR3 @1333mhz

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

@NLmonsterNL Yes, it will "work"

[Kaiiserc0320009]

i have this graficcard hd4650 and a 2,2 ghz prozessor, does it run in the highest resolution?=

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

@Kaiiserc0320009 That's a very vague question. What is the "highest" resolution?....

That can range from anywhere to 2560 x 1600+

[Kaiiserc0320009]

@MinimeDrummerBoi resulotion from what? sorry iam german and i dont understand everything :P

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

@Kaiiserc0320009 What highest resolution are you referring to?

[Kaiiserc0320009]

@Kaiiserc0320009 i cant understand.

i want to buy the toshiba l550 11j.

graficcard is your and the prozessor 2,2 ghz.

[TombMan12]

@Kaiiserc0320009 different monitors have different "highest resolutions

1 has 1024x768

other has 1280x1012

third has 1980x1080

[LloydHands]

I got ATI Radeon HD 4850 and im lagging at low gfx

[LazyAshinGuy]

@LloydHands Probably your other components

[clangeks]

hai guyz, i just bought a hd 4600 series when i asked the salesman to give me a 4650 he gave me a 4670 for the same price.. am i at a loss? which more powerful 4650 or 4670? i use to think higher number of card is better but my friend say no..

[violinsurgent16]

i cant wait till i get this for my b-day!! :) (i know this card is way outdated... but its the cheapest/best me and m dad can get)

[ThaDK00]

oh i cant watch this... what do i HATE this game.... worst game ive ever played... its so bad... it sux to hard dude.... so non realistic, after after 5min you got to kill the same guard post people ago... and you have to stay on the roads... no freedom at all

[JSgamerz]

Gt220 or HD4650?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Google up some benchmarks.

[deurkl]

@JSgamerz HD 4650

[JSchwarze89]

@JSgamerz i have the HD4650 and run ArmA II on high settings in mp.... i recommend it =)

[e3borealis]

Turn shadows on medium, and other on highest and all will be ok :) I play with this settings, its about 40-60 fps.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Yeah I don't really play the game anymore.

[ilias2oo6]

@MinimeDrummerBoi what drivers u had hen u played far cry 2?10.3 drivers freeze in games,when i did the CD Drivers that come with the card when u buy it then it didnt freeze in games

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

@ilias2oo6

Sorry, I don't remember. This was my old card and I no longer have it.

[Freaky2Music]

ich hab auch die ATI 4650 HD also kann ich Far Cry 2 Auch auf Sehr Hoch oder nur Hock spielen?

würde ich gern mal wissen. :o

aber ich bin sehr zufrieden mit der Grafik karte ;)

[nelizmastr]

keep it English on youtube man ;)

lucky for you I understand German.

Well, I have a 4670, and I can play Ultra High, so I guess a 4650 could do high to very high

[rayright15]

@nelizmastr it would be pretty hard, in some cases the 4670 can be 45% more powerful than the 4650

[SynodCenturion]

ehm...no...

the 4670 is the same gpu...only higher clocked....

It cannot be 45% more powerful..unless it had another architecture...

[rayright15]

@SynodCenturion it's not only clocked higher. Take a look at the specs. 4670 has 400 stream processors, while the 4650 has 320.

Then there is also the clocks, which are lower. I've calculated on multiple benchmarks.

[EndL17873]

Does this fit the GateWayGT5622

[ChaosTheory602]

I don't get why you guys go so high on the resolution. If I had this card I wouldn't mind playing 1024x768 with everything maxed and never worry about framerates. Big deal that you lose a few pixels.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

That's not really the issue for me. It's not that crisp at 1024 x 768.

Plus, if you have a big monitor, why waste the space by not taking advantage of the resolution? Textures will look sharper too.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Yeah but I would've gone with a 4770 if it was out at the time.

[tansvanio]

this game is so unrealistic

[isokessu]

Actually this is pretty realistic game O_o he just plays with some super extra easy mode and he doesn't have full graphics ..but it works pretty well and those graphics aren't bad at all

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

This was a budget card. If you watch my newer videos, I've come a long way.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Recording with a cam doesn't give an accurate view on how the game looks like at a specific setting.

[BlackGingerProdz]

lmao! 9600GT cant run 8xAA are you retarded or what?

[HARDSTYLENNO]

no get a duo core or quad core phenom 2.06ghz or better and 1gb ram might but will not be for high on crisis and also get a ati sapphire radeon hd4650 for £60 pc world your gonna need to spend at least £220 on your pc because your pc probaly wont be good enough to play dungeon keeper let alone crysis

[Xarie1]

wow nice

I have to try it with my

E5200 @ 3400Mhz

2 GB Ram

And my HD 4650 that ive bought today.

:D

Hope it runs as good as yours :D

[JUDOHAWK69]

I had almost the same system when I had my 4650 and in DX9 mode, the game runs decent on this card. Just keep the resolution from being too high.

[flatout2ful]

amd sempron 1.6 ghz

1gb ram

ati radeon 9600/1050 256 mb

can i play crysis and gta iv

[Xarie1]

wow... i would say no... lol amd sempron xDD

[JUDOHAWK69]

lol joke post.

[PS360c]

dam your core 2 duo processor is a beast. You OCed it from 3.0 ghz to 3.82 ghz not bad.

[OperationMayhem7]

Did u use any AA?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Not in this video.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Console fanboy much?

[LintuDoll]

lower the shadows quality and you'll get +10 fps or more for sure

[OperationMayhem7]

AMD Phenom ii 4x 920 2.8 Ghz

8 GB RAM

ATI HD 4650 1 GB

1440x900 resolution

i wonder how its going to run this game. Any comments please?

[OperationMayhem7]

oh and i wont be OCing but it seems like you have on this video.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

A mix of medium and high settings.

[trp09876]

i have chosen ATi redeon 4650 1gb....now there is another problem should i buy HIS ATI redeon 4650 ddr2 1gb... ?? OR XFX ATI redeon 4650 ddr2 1GB ???? help me ... lolzzz XFX vs HIS ? :D which one should i take... XFX or HIS ??

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

I answered it once already. Don't spam anymore.

[33dgtp]

i'm getting HIS

[darkomerc0806]

well Sapphire one is the best...

[heypncph2gr]

im getting the hp dv6 1268nr

it has:

amd turion x2 ultra 2.2ghz

mobility radeon 1gb 4650

4gb ddr2

how will this do with far cry,crysis,gta 4,or any other games you can think of? thnxx

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Low to medium settings.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Stop spamming.

[Fabi0Franc0]

Hi. I tried to run this on my HIS 4650 512 MB at 1360 x 768 with everything on medium and no AA, but I only got about 20 FPS at best (sometimes it went below 15).

I have an E5200 2.5 Ghz with 4 GB DDR2 800 CAS 5, and the VGA is running on stock clocks. Do you think I'll be able to run this game with everything on high and above 30 FPS if I overclock the GPU to 653/437 mhz and the CPU to 3.3 Ghz?

I will have to get a $25 cooler to do that. Do you think the investment will pay off? Thanks.

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Maybe, but that would be a good investment.

[oguzhan9466]

what's better HD4650 GDDR3 512MB? or Nvidia 8600GT DDR2 512MB

and i need a better Graphic card mostly for GTA IV =]

i can't run it on medium with my 8600GT DDR2 512MB *OC*

yes OVERCLOCKED =P

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

I don't believe the 4650 is faster in general but I could be wrong. Go google some benchmarks and you'll get you answer.

[sunligth2000]

when i use it,i found nice video but very low sound

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Go to Control Panel, Sounds Speeches etc., then adjust system volume. Go to the audio Tab and select your Sound recording device and select volume and drag the tab higher.

[sunligth2000]

how did u record the video plsss?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Fraps.

[geftargnabl]

If you lowered you freaking res a bit that game would run great...

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Lower resolution = low res textures. Playing it at native resolution is your best bet. And the game does run great at 1440 x 900 so I don't know what your problem is.

[geftargnabl]

a good test is on my old rig bioshock native res 1440 x 900 all high: 21 fps... all high 1024 x 768: 36

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

In addition, the higher the resolution, the more graphic card usage is used. Playing at 1024 x 768 is more CPU dependant.

[JAWZxz]

Just wondering, wat size monitor u running to play on 1440 x 900? I only have a 19in so it would look way too small. LOL

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

I have a 19in. Samsung. It doesn't look that small, well to me at least.

[Hockeyvalley]

Yes it has SLI configuration so im gonna swithch the graphic card to ASUS RADEON HD4850 512MB.

So after that I have a great gaming pc right?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Yes.

[Hockeyvalley]

Hey MINImeDRUMMERBOI can I play Farcry 2 and crysus at maxsettings with this system?

AMD Phenom9550x4 4GB (4x1 GB)

DDR2 1000 GB

ATI HD4650

Please replay. I subcribing if you help me out! :)

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Not at max settings. Maybe around med-high settings at 1440x900.

[Hockeyvalley]

Ok but Im gonna buy this PC on monday so let se the result back then.

But can I play at maxsettings if I only change the graphic card?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Probably. Look into a 4770 or 4850.

[sk8boardingdood]

r u getting a desktop or laptop???

[Hockeyvalley]

Desktop Why?

[sk8boardingdood]

well...

if you get a PC with the processor you want, you can just buy a separate video card and add it to your desktop if u have SLI configuration.If not just switch them!!

[xxxblackout]

i wanna buy this card cuz its super cheap. i just want it so i can play wow at max cuz my radeon 3650 just isnt cutting it. will this card let me play wow at max? just wondering. i got intell duel core 805 2.66ghz and 3g of ddr2

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

At a reasonable resolution, yes.

[DeathToLiberalism]

I just upgraded from a geForce 7950 GT to this card (4650 w/ 1GB DDR2) and Windows Vista performance evaluator actually dropped my gaming graphics score down from 5.8 to 5.2! What gives?

[HoustonRocketsss]

Well try to oc 2-3% your card and you will get 5.8.Also it doesn't matter the score.The 4650 is clearly better than a 7900gt

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

What Houston said.

[HoustonRocketsss]

lmao I replied to DeathToLiberalism

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Yeah I messed up. It was for a reply to Death.

[rogiermusic]

lol i have an Ati radeon 9200 se family 512, crap. lol maybe gonna buy the 4650

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Save up for a 4770.

[JUDOHAWK69]

LOL P4

[3XPERIMANTAL]

HAH LOL! P4 SUCKS! CELERON ALL THE WAY!

*runs away crying*

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Thats cool.

[thesm0ke]

How good is ATI Radeon HD 4650 DDR2 with 1GB ?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

It's a good card to start of with. I wouldn't really keep it as my final video card.

[saibarcafi]

I have a 9600GT DDR3 GPU :).

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Good for you.

[saibarcafi]

Your HD4650 sucks, DDR3 version is way better than DDR2 1GB version ;).

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Lol talk to my 3870 GDDR4 :)

[Chris2300DK]

Is it right that this card get power from the pci slot?

Atm im running with a 8600gs (sux)

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Yes. There is no need for a PCI-E power cord.

[Chris2300DK]

Sweet =) Does it perfom better than a 8600gs?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

I'm pretty sure it does.

[Chris2300DK]

Cool. But should i buy the 512mb or 1gb model? I already got 3gb ram in my PC and 32bit OS?

So will it even use the 1gb?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Operating system wouldn't affect your gpu unless you're using like windows 95 or something. Depends on what resolution you're going to play at. The higher resolution, the more vram you're going to need to fill those textures. Anything resolution above 1280 x 800, I recommend the 1GB version.

[Chris2300DK]

Ok i take the XFX - Radeon HD 4650 :P

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Nice. Good luck with that.

[saibarcafi]

Yes, HD4650 DDR3 > 8600GT/S, DDR2 version too :D.

[Chris2300DK]

What u mean?

[saibarcafi]

I want to say that HD4650 is way better than 8600GT/GTS, if HD4650 is DDR3 version, of course.

HD4650 DDR3 = 1.5X 8600GTS DDR3 :d.

[pixulafken]

gta 4 with HD4650 512mb ddr3 is good combination???

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Not that great for GTA4. GTA4 is a very demanding game. Get something a little more powerful like a 4850 or 4870. My guess would be medium to low settings for a reasonable resolution.

[showrider99]

i got this card i capped at 30fps so that good my reso is 1650x1050 or sumitnk and my cpu is AMD athlon 2x dual core 5200+ 2.7

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Very nice!

[Lolismad]

lol, i play high/very high but well, resolution isnt that high 1024x768 (since my screen is 1280x768)

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Yeah, it's harder for me as I go to 1440 x 900.

[Lolismad]

agree

[pixulafken]

HD 4650 DDR3???

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

GDDR2

[PyroSGU]

how much Watt PSU does this card require?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

According to Newegg, 400 watts.

[EEmieLL]

thank you very much :D

which card should i choose nvidia geforce 8600 512mb or this 4650 card ?

thx

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

I say 4650.

[EEmieLL]

does that card run GTA4 ? if yes in which detail if you know :P?

soz for bad english

thx

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Well, the 4650, it can "run" it but at barely playable frame rates if I were to guess. It's a budget card so it would probably play at lower resolutions and around a low to medium setting.

[Thedudesam]

This is a REALLY decent card for its price, i have the sapphire HD4650. 5* vid

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Yeah, it's a budget card imo.

[eafanboyssuck]

what? i said 4670

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Oh my mistake, yes, its better than the 4650.

[matt759537]

how well does this game run withoutfraps does it run like with very little lag and great performance?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

The information you are seeking is provided in the description.

[eafanboyssuck]

is the 4670 hd worse or better?

[showrider99]

umm i got this card and it runs higher then avarage 30 fps it runs at 50 fps on max

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Well what resolution are you running? Your other specs can be higher than mines.

[utltrarama]

Cool video!

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Thanks!

[albokidnj]

nice man i want the 4650 i got to settle with the 8200 now which sucks

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

8200 o_o? Never heard of that card.

[albokidnj]

the igp nvidea 8200 m its terrible its only good for multimedia i can barely play grid on medium

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Oh, I thought you were talking about ATi. Isn't the 8200 a built in card? I'm assuming you have a laptop.

[albokidnj]

yea i wish i had the Ati 3200 hd for my laptop but i have no choice and have to be stuck with an 8200

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

You should build your own pc =]

[albokidnj]

lol u dont know how many people say that to me, i wanted to but i dont really know how to build it theres probably guides online right?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

I personally learned by myself. It's pretty straight foward but if you need help, search "thenewboston". He has alot of videos on how to build a pc.

[albokidnj]

wow thanks for the help man i want to build a descent gaming desktop to at least run gta4 how fast u think the cpu should be per core (i wanted a dual-core)

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

In terms of the future, I would get a quad core because quad core is gonna go mainstream pretty soon. If you're get a dual core, get the E8400 and over-clocked it.

[albokidnj]

nice but i thought the quadcore would be too expensive for a descent one that could play pretty good games

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

Well you should plan ahead and quad cores aren't that expensive. You should look at the new AMD Phenom II X4's, they're excellent and going at a great price for what you're getting.

[albokidnj]

Nice ill look into it how many gigs of ram u think i should get?

[MinimeDrummerBoi]

The minimum for me is 2 GB. I recommend 4 GB of DDR2 or even better, DDR3. DDR2 would do just fine, but if you have the money, go with the DDR3.

[1eandr1]

First you should know that a 32-bit operating system can only recognise 3GB of RAM, and a 64-bit can recognise more.

So if you are sticking to a 32-bit operating system get 2GB or 3GB. To get 2GB you could get 2x1GB chips, or 1x2GB Chip. To get 3GB you do 1x1GB + 1x2GB chips.

[albokidnj]

yea i know about the whole vista stuff with 32 bit and 64 bit but i wanted to get windows xp pro sp2 so it could play then when it becomes outdated i would get vista

[1eandr1]

In that case. You could easily get 2x2GB RAM Chips. If you are getting the 64-but of XP Pro SP2 then it will recognise all 4GB, if not you will have 3GB but should be able to recognise all 4GB when you upgrade to Vista 64-bit. You can get more if you want, but for now 4GB is the recommended amount

[albokidnj]

yea i heard 4gb could run a lot of different games too so thats what im looking for. I really like this video card too how much memory u think i should get for the vid card i was thinkin around 512mb

[1eandr1]

512mb would do fine. And this card is quite cheap and does the job so it wouldn't be too hard to upgrade to a 1GB if you needed to. If you are on a budget go for 512mb and if you can afford a few more £s or $s then consider going for 1GB.

[albokidnj]

i wouldnt consider it if it wasn't needed its not like i want to play Crisis at ultra high settings lol i just want to play racing games at high fps with good graphics u think this could play racing games for years to come?

[1eandr1]

Wouldn't say years. Maybe 1 or 2 at the best, as technology is advancing rapidly...too fast in my opinion, they should slow it down. But if it's just racing then there shouldn't be too much need for a 1GB graphics card. It's not as if there are going to be lot's of huge explosions and such all at the same time :P

[albokidnj]

yea but after time i would upgrade to maybe even a 4870 x2 or even stronger when new ati cards come out

[1eandr1]

Cool, it's entirely your choice.

I'm including this card in my next build too :P

Probably the 1GB version and 4GB of DDR3 RAM.
