Hey All

Today I bought a new Graphics Card... it was about time to upgrade...

Old: Nvidia GeForce 8600GS 512MB
New: Sapphire Radeon HD4670 GDDR3 HDMI PCI-E 1GB (Chipset: ATi Radeon HD4670)




I know there are better cards out there... but since I wanted something Cheap that works good enough for my pc... and has mb source at least of 1,000 (1GB).. this is the right for me!

So far, Here's a list with games I've played on my PC today.. and Results!!

Just note that I use the Resolution 1680 x 1050 in all the games listed bellow!!


To be tested:
Call of Duty 4: Modern Warface
Call of Duty 5: World at War
Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box (Online mostly.)

HDMI Connection - GPU to this 20" Samsung Monitor I use, using an HDMI Cable :) (Will test it this Friday if able.)

Already Tested - Succeed
Grand Theft Auto IV ~ Online Too : Max on Graphics (Except View Distance which was at 30.) I get 30 FPS here, and it's lovely without the Definition (In which you can see the Blur when you move the camera fast, or speed.)



Need For Speed: Shift - Max Graphics - Nearly 30-45 FPS (Depends on Map & Car.)

What can I say? I love this! The graphics are just AMAZING! I love it more by the inside car camera, where you see the blur effect when you speed! :D Restarted the game by begin so I can now enjoy it!



Left 4 Dead (1) - Max Graphics - Nearly 35-40 FPS

Awesome, Not even a simple moment of lag, Great effects with shooting / Fire! Just Wonderfull!

Left 4 Dead (2) - Max Graphics - Nearly 25-30 FPS

Just GREAAAT! Amazing! I couldn't believe my eyes! Graphics are just so nice.... game does not lag, and the zombies are beeing funny :P  :banana:



Far Cry 2 - Ultra High

This is a bit of laggy at Ultra High.... but still in the default High, I can get about 25-30 FPS.. and with Ultra High, I get the average of 15FPS...



Counter Strike Source

Well, you do not need a special pc to play this one, I was already playing it without lag with the old GPU.. still nice and even better now!



18 WoS Extreme Trucker - MAX Graphics

Just wow? Great graphics... badly I destroyed the truck by falling in a ice hole  :redface:  :rofl: :rofl: :lol:  :D



Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X - Max Graphics

 :wow: :wow: This game really made me say "wow, look at the graphics!!"... it's amazing gameplay, plus the nice aircraft included on the game.. as well as the missions are good too!




I got maaaaany more games and things to test this with :)

Thing is I do not care if you have a better GPU, even if you do, Gratz to you! But if you need a cheap solution able to play a LOT Games with great quality.. this is what you should get :)

I'm here to hear comments :P so speak!! say your opinion :)
