Quick and dirty. No where near yours. -100 undervolt.

Thanks, btw are you using your IGP ? If not, you might as well disable it

Back in the day when the pound was absurdly, idiotically overvalued. The HD 4850's MSRP (and actual street price) was $200.

I forgot I enabled it when I swapped out my old card (it's a good insurance thing in my experience).

Nah just download the 3DMark app on Steam, its one of the default benchmarks in there.

I want to test the 9070XT in the second system, which has a 7800XT. can i just update the driver then make the switch? or do i need to DDU etc if i'm already on AMD?

Thanks

Interested to hear back about coil whine on this model when you've had chance to use for a while

Got my Steel Legend Saturday, had a few long sessions on it and not had any coil whine yet. Not played around with overclocking just yet, closest I got was turning on the auto overclock which resulted in lower benchmarks so disabled that

Foliedelanuit · 2025-03-11T14:17:04+0000

Good info. Wonder if any correlation will emerge between models with 12V-2x6 and increased coil whine

Is this about right? My monitor is 180hz and I noticed that the frame rate doesn't go over that during the benches (tho regularly was hitting 180), no idea if that is correct or not but vsync/freesync were all off.

Its a little low but not miles out. My graphics score is between 29,000 & 31,000 with an undervolt

I'm staring at my order progress bar hoping it's like windows fragmentation

It was an ASUS 5850 with the horse on the box actually lol.

Edit: Nvm,it was an XFX full shroud HD4850 1GB. I still have my HD4830 with the exact same cooler. Off topic sorry.

Edit 2: I just noticed,the HD4000 series used GDDR3 apart from the HD4870 right? I had a 4870,i even remember it had like 115gb/s. Off topic!

I spoke to CS today on the off chance they had any insight (I was expecting nothing). They said they expected dispatch in 24-48 hours.

I have no faith in this :cry:

The reaper has shipped... (not from OcUK, they blocked all of The Netherlands, including from the forum, during the madness anyway).

It was about time to retire the 6 year old 5700xt.

Not sure what the exchange rate was, I got one on launch day for around £120.

<goes to find the card, still got it somewhere>

It might be the cpu platform holding it back a little mine is 27*** but running an even older cpu

The really enjoyable thing about gaming on this card is you feel you've got a fair bit of a bargain for the performance it offers, makes gaming on it even more fun.

In a world where VFM is fading, this card wins!
