TigerTV - Radeon HD3870 And HD3850

Logan from TigerDirect talks about the HD3870 and 3850 GPUs from ATI. Crysis and Half Life 2 are used as benchmarks.

(Note - It's mostly about the 3870, he only touches briefly on the 3850)

is the 256MB ATI Mobility RADEON HD 3650 the same as this?

[FriendlySniper]

Nope.

I got tons of questions for this card:

What Ratings will it get for Vista?

Is it better than the nVidia 8800?

How much does it cost?

Plzz reply!!!

[FriendlySniper]

The 8800gt is better. This card is fairly cheap now (around US$140)but I'd recommend the 8800gt over this, it's only a couple bucks more.

hi, i got a pc of ebay with random parts stuck in it, its got a e4500intel, hd3870, 2gig ram ddr3 and a gigabyte mother, what can i do 2 improve it as i get under 20fps on crysis :(

[FriendlySniper]

Hi. Are you running it on high/very high settings? If possible, try OC-ing your CPU to at least 2.8Ghz. Or if you don't want to do that try putting some settings on medium, like shaders.

[johnjn14]

logan rules

[pimpstenator]

only medium? lol

[krullexneo]

This was the first graphics card i bought XD

[IBlueNinjaI]

I loved tiger direct, now albert is there its fine enough but i liked better logan and the pc hardware is low.. allmost only cameras, and other fuck it xD

[IBlueNinjaI]

@2fast4all Great for you that was a good card 3 years ago :) but still its fine heh..

[thereddog223]

[keeler1160]

Are his video reviews on the net anywhere? I like them better and I like the theme of the video.

[2fast4all]

I have the same card.

Tigerdirecttv was only cool because of King Logan

[nelizmastr]

strange.

and not particulary HD3800 series. the HD2xxx series were already a lot better. also the rest of the HD3000 series. not just the high end 38xx

[gundorlt]

Actually it was the other way arround. Do some research on why.

Had a 9600 myself and had an opportunity to compare it to FX5500. 9600 was better. It was only when the 6xxx series came out from nVidia that they started to crush ATI. Untill the HD38xx came out.

[nelizmastr]

ur processor is the problem dude, the FX series is the best when it comes to source games (at the time' they kicked the asses of the Radeon 9500,9600, and 9800pro cards.
