for the normal budget !

not expensive - to powerful !

[Yoda8232]

@MegaNextGen Exactly why I got it, plays all the games I need at pretty high settings. After all it's the gameplay and mechanics that count the most.

[Yoda8232]

65 degrees with auto fan set, but I have a new case and everything so it's nice a cool inside.

[MJBDC07]

tigerdirect delivered it to me just now, the xfx 4770 version didn't come with a dvi to hdmi adapter or a crossfire adapter which sucks. i'm using a nexxtech adapter and i'm getting no audio. if you guys are getting this card do not get it from Tiger Direct get it from NewEgg or NCIX instead.

[Yoda8232]

@MJBDC07 Weird, Tigerdirect or any supplier can't just open any new box and change what's inside. It would of have to been missing the adapter straight from XFX. I'd still complain to both compaines. Good luck with your new card!

[SchaapjeDeluxe]

[goodvocalcover]

a must buy i have the ATI-Radeon-HD-4000-Serie i can run anything on max with it any game

[stalingradComando]

@Avataryoutuification

yes, it does require a single 6-pin power connector but that shouldn`t be much of a problem. The 4770 consumes like 80 watts at max. My PSU has a single +12V rail with 24 amps and I never had any problem

[DeutscherRitterorden]

nice video !

[Avataryoutuification]

Does this require an external power connector or is it just puerly getting power from pci, no other wires needed? I need to know because my 12 v railings aren't strong! And I can't upgrade the PSU.

[MegaNextGen]

@Yoda8232 yes

too bad i broken my pc and now i got one shity ! :(
