Which 4850?

[Freelanc3r]

Hi,

Confused about which ATI 4850 I should get, My budget for it is about £110 without VAT so don't want the ICeQ or Toxic or any of the other more expensive 4850's.

Just really not sure which one to choose. Anyone got any input?

Thanks

There all about the same mate, so just go for the cheapest.

You said your budget is 110 without vat when this card is 114 on this week only offer.

Think you should spare that extra few pound and get this.

Edit: never seen the above card i would get that instead even though i think the HIS cooler is probably better.

Sounds really great from that review. Nice and quiet.

The HIS is £140 including delivery. If you are not intending to water cool, then thats the one I would recommend. It vents the heat outside the case. You could save £5 buying the cheapest and adding the £17 Vortex Neo, but imho its not worth the hassle or the warranty worry.

After that, there is the Power Cooler one recommended by the guy in the 3rd post. You would need good case ventilation, though.

I'd spend the extra and get the iceq if you can.

Yeah gonna go for the IceQ, my case is mATX so exhausting the hot air outside the case is very useful.
