Which would you buy for £50 HD4850 512 ram or 4770 with 512 ram.
Got to make my mind up want to order in the morning .
Its for the wifes new build and she wants to play settlers rise of an empire at full tilt .
Need your advice
 
Well ended up getting her a 8 month old xfi 4870 1gb for £70 and its all complete in box like new. Just hope her Fsp blue storm 530 will run it. Bargain i think.

Unless it costs me a power supply
 
The HD4770 has low peak power consumption as it is made on a 40NM process. Idle power consumption is higher AFAIK when compared to the HD4850 as the HD4770 uses an older version of GDDR5 RAM.
