Awfully nice. Seriously
This is grandeur
AMD Revamp indeed. I think NVIDIA can throw in the white flag now.
I’m just seriously amazed by all the features and specs. And then those AA methods against CSAA. Haha CSAA is history
Very impressed by this
Gizz is right, so happy by all these specs. Glad it didn’t disappointed and wasn’t just hype. Then again, I know WhatIfGaming don’t do hype.
GDDR5 memory + GDDR3 superior clocked on 50? Count me in for both for all of my PC’s
This is really overwhelming. Thanks
TY so much
No one in India ship 4850 or 4870. I want to cry cause specs look nice. ; ( I order international now but shipp fees is hurting! xD
Get over it Vash. It’s really worth it for the 70’s and 50’s. Just do it =)
